Chapter 23 Chapter 22

People in the Northeast say that a countryman is rustic, so they say that he has "a head full of sorghum flowers".Xia Yunjie and Dai Hongbin, the founders of the Tangyuan Guerrilla Army and the two commanders of the Army, are regarded by some people as a sorghum flower, and Feng Zhigang, the chief of staff of the Army, who is also a countryman, is a book. Feng Zhigang was born in Huaide County, Jilin Province in 1908. The next year, the Feng family moved to Genggui Village, Taipingchuan, Tangyuan County.After graduating from elementary school, he was admitted as an employee by the county judicial department because of his excellent grades, and was later promoted to a member of the department.In the eyes of the country folk who scavenge and eat in the dirt, being able to work in the county government office is almost like jumping through the dragon's gate.If it weren't for the "September 18th" incident, then the "Longmen" might have jumped to where it went.It is said that the big men in the county all fell in love with this smart, studious and handsome young man, and wanted to marry their daughters to him.In addition to doing his job conscientiously, he reads books in his free time—the most read after the accident is "The Art of War by Sun Tzu".

There are three gold mines on the northeast side of Xiaoxing’an Mountains. The two gold mines of Heijinhe and Liangzihe were occupied by the Japanese invaders, leaving only Gejinhe in the hands of the Chinese.After the Japanese invaders occupied Tangyuan County, Feng Zhigang came to Gejinhe Gold Mine as a clerk and accountant, advised the manager Liu Jisan, organized a mine protection team, used the favorable terrain to block the invasion of the Japanese and puppet troops, and sometimes joined forces with the Tangyuan guerrillas. . In April 1934, two teams led by Dai Hongbin and Feng Zhigang confiscated more than 30 guns from the Puppet Self-Defense Regiment known as "Liang Erye" in Taipingchuan.Soon, the pseudo-county office distributed guns to this pseudo-self-defense group, and they were confiscated again.Two days later, the puppet army slaughtered more than 400 people in the brigade and surrounded the two teams in Yuluoguotun.From morning to afternoon, in order to cover and rescue the wounded, there were only Feng Zhigang and 4 team members left in the village, including the wounded.Feng Zhigang opened the way with a box gun, and the others helped the wounded to rush out.He said that if I didn't fall, he would follow me, and if I fell, don't worry about me, one rushes out one by one.

The battle suffered heavy casualties, and Feng Zhigang's elder brother also died during the breakout. Liu Jisan said, let's not overestimate our capabilities, we can't fight these days, let's break up.The gold mine is also gone, and I took my family back to my hometown in Keshan County.And told Feng Zhigang, you should also "grope" (find) a place to "hide" (hide, hide) and stop messing with the Japanese. Feng Zhigang pulled up a team by himself and reported it as the "Civil and Military Team" to continue the war of resistance in Tangwang Valley and Xiaoxing'an Mountains.

Old man Wang Jun said that Feng Zhigang's father-in-law was the last supervisor of Tangyuan County in the old Republic of China, and the supervisor was the county magistrate. Both Weng and his son-in-law were influential and bloody figures.Feng Zhigang is of medium height, with thick eyebrows, big eyes and high nose bridge, calm and decisive, civil and martial arts, wise and brave.Dai Hongbin persuaded him to join the guerrillas, but he didn't look down on Dai Hongbin.He thinks that you are a "half-handed guy" with a head full of sorghum flowers, and you can lead hundreds of people to fight Japan. I am better than you in every way, so I want to compare myself.This man has a high spirit and is really capable. He fought some good battles, and the team quickly grew from 7 people to more than 60 people.At the same time, I also understood that the guerrillas are led by the Communist Party, which is incomparable to anyone else.

Feng Zhigang is bold and careful, and his command and operations are thoughtful, meticulous, steady, precise and ruthless.The best example of this style was the attack on Tangyuan County on April 28, 1937. At the beginning of April, the county party committee received information that the enemy was planning a large-scale manhunt to arrest all suspected anti-Japanese people in the county, regardless of gender, age or age.what to do?Feng Zhigang said that using offense as defense, opening up the county can destroy the enemy's plan.Some people say that the main force has gone west, and there is only a left-behind regiment of more than a hundred people, who can still fight the county?The Japanese occupied Tangyuan, who opened the county?Feng Zhigang stated his ideas one by one, and some people were still skeptical.

This is a well-planned surprise attack with internal and external cooperation. Two cross streets divide Tangyuan County into several pieces.In the northwest is the puppet county office and police brigade, in the southwest and southeast are the Japanese and puppet troops, and there is a big bunker on the cross street in the center.In the middle of the night, from the opening of the city gate to the control of various vital parts, the left-behind regiment and the peasant self-defense forces in various districts had more than 2,000 people, all of whom had inside lines to support and guide them.When Feng Zhigang led the main force to the compound of the Puppet County Office, someone had already set up a ladder outside the wall, and the "watchman" knocked on his clapper and shouted "It's safe and well" in an unhurried manner.

The first shot was fired in the compound of the Pseudo-County Office. The sound of gunfire and the sound of firecrackers exploding in iron barrels shocked Tangyuan City.There was a long-standing communication and tacit understanding with the puppet army and puppet police. More than 300 people surrendered. More than 40 devils including the puppet county counselor were shot to death.When it was almost dawn, people from all walks of life withdrew from the city separately and returned with a full load. Old man Wang Jun sighed: Feng Zhigang is the only one who can organize and mobilize the more than 2,000 improvised peasant self-defense forces from various districts.

There are dozens of miles on both sides of the Gejin River, and there are more than a dozen small villages, collectively named Taipingchuan. Taipingchuan is divided into East Taipingchuan and West Taipingchuan.There is a pseudo-self-defense regiment at the west end of East Taipingchuan. Most of the more than 30 people are gunners. In terms of combat effectiveness, it is the best in Tangyuan County.The head of the group, Zhang Chuanfu, was in his thirties, of medium height, with a hulking back.There are more than 30 members of the Zhang family brothers, with chariots and horses, more than 300 pieces of land, and they also run oil workshops and powder workshops. They can be described as a big family.Zhang Chuanfu is not only good at running a family and managing money, but also has good marksmanship. Beards with a radius of tens of miles are afraid of him, and he is as accurate in speaking and doing things as shooting a gun.

However, right now, a heart is in a state of panic. The guerrillas defeated the Tu Brigade, disarmed the Dongerbao and the Yadanhe Self-Defense Regiment, and opened up the West Taiping River. Wouldn’t it be the East Taiping River’s turn next?I didn't expect that two rogues could make such a big fuss, and the whole Tangyuan North became the world of guerrillas.Now the common people open their mouths to "anti-Japanese". He is also a Chinese, and he also wants to beat the Japanese, so as to leave a good name for future generations, but what will the guerrillas and the Communist Party think of him?After the Japanese occupied Tangyuan, they wanted to set up self-defense groups in various places, saying that they wanted to shave their beards to protect the ground, so everyone elected him as the head of the group.Although he had never fought against the guerrillas, he was working for the Japanese. Isn’t he a traitor and a lackey?

A heart was going up and down, and the brothers Wang Jiachang and Cai Yubin came. After chatting about homework, the food and wine are served.After three glasses of wine, the topic turned to the guerrillas, Feng Zhigang and Liu Tieshi.Liu Tieshi is the most educated person in Tangyuan County. Do you think he can go wrong?Feng Zhigang's father-in-law, Supervisor Ji, is called the county magistrate. He led his family and hid in the mountains. He would rather die of illness than work for the Japanese.Brother, you are a first-class hero in Taipingchuan. Looking at the current situation, brothers are all anxious for you.

Zhang Chuanfu sighed: I am different from you.This step is wrong, can we still go back? Cai Yubin said: In the past, mistakes were small mistakes. If you know you are wrong and continue to make mistakes, then you will make big mistakes.When the sun and the moon also have eclipses, it is a man to know and correct mistakes.As long as you really want to fight Japan, who will miss those old sesame seeds and rotten millet? Zhang Chuanfu didn't know that Cai Yubin was an underground party and Wang Jiachang was the president of the Anti-Japanese Association, but he knew that they had connections with the guerrillas.He said: Tell me when you have time, that I, Zhang Chuanfu, is also a Chinese. Cai Yubin reported to the county party committee. County party secretary Xia Yunjie convened a meeting. He said: Zhang Chuanfu is quite famous in Tangyuan. If he can come out to fight against the Japanese, it will have a greater impact than our two victories.He wanted to get a feel for our bottom line, so I went there and asked him to "fix the mound" (make a decision). Dai Hongbin said: What if it was a trap?Secretary Xia is a person who takes big things seriously, and if he does something, he will lose a lot.I think it's better for me to go, I think I can handle things neatly. Everyone thinks Dai Hongbin is right.Xia Yunjie ambushed the guerrillas near Zhang Chuanfu's self-defense group, and sent a few party members to the negotiation site to covertly protect them. The negotiations were conducted at Wang Jia's home. When the conversation got to the point, Dai Hongbin said: Commander Zhang, you can't just look at how many people there are in the Tangyuan guerrillas and how big the red land is.There is Yang Jingyu in South Manchuria, Zhao Shangzhi in North Manchuria, and Zhou Baozhong in Jidong. They are all members of the Communist Party. Zhang Chuanfu said: I have heard Captain Dai's words.I, Zhang Chuanfu, is a Chinese man, and I have nothing to say about fighting the Japanese, but I am afraid that the Communist Party will not trust me and say that I have surrendered to the Japanese.Some brothers have mentioned Jiujiang in the past two days, so I have to make mistakes. Dai Hongbin called "Big Brother": I can tell, what Big Brother said was heartfelt, but you were wrong.Who is Yu Jiujiang?Brother, who are you?He is a bearded man, and you are a bearded hero. Isn't this comparing an old raven to a phoenix?Brother, look at it, with your kung fu, the team will grow into tens of thousands in the future, and you will have to be the division commander and army commander. Zhang Chuanfu stretched out his hand to open his coat, took out a box of guns and slapped them on the table, Dai Hongbin did the same, and the two swore to each other: whoever says something wrong, let him take the gun! Zhang Chuanfu mobilized his elder brother and younger brother to sell the carriages, horses, oil workshops, powder workshops and land, set fire to the Zhang family compound, and took his family and self-defense group to join the guerrillas. Political commissar—Lao Xia (Yun Jie), thirty-two years old, from Shandong, born as a poor peasant, but has gone through many complicated social occupations.Joined the party in September 1932, worked as an inspector of the anti-imperialist alliance and worked with the local masses for March, inspector of the party and district committee for March and April, county party committee staff department for July and August, and served as secretary of the county party committee after August last year. Served as a political commissar in the team for more than two months.He is brave and firm. He is the best cadre produced in Tangyuan's long-term struggle. He has ability and considerable work experience, but he is politically weak.After coming to the provincial party committee for training this year, he has made great progress. He has great prestige among the Tangyuan Party and the masses, and is a central cadre in the Tangyuan Party and its ranks. This is a natural paragraph in "The Situation of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Struggle and the Development and Organizational Overview of the Anti-Japanese Forces" in January 1935. As mentioned earlier, on October 4, 1933, after 12 people headed by Tangyuan Central County Party Committee Secretary Pei Zhiyun were arrested and killed, Xia Yunjie, the only survivor among the members of the county Party committee, shouldered the burden of the Tangyuan Party and the guerrillas . In every way, this is a very fateful moment. Not long after the "1.26" instruction letter was delivered, the new and old lines changed, and people's thinking and struggle policies urgently needed to be adjusted and positioned.The Tangyuan Party, which was hit hard, was naive at first, just like the party organizations in many areas.The effort to seize guns and create a guerrilla team has been exhausted, but it still fails again and again, like a tunnel with no exit and no light. What is never say never?The grabbing gun in Chapter 2 above is.Without guns, the county party committee can only hide in Tibet, not to mention leading the war of resistance, even beards can't deal with it.However, if you are unyielding and keep fighting repeatedly, but always lose your troops and generals, then there is no such thing as "never say never".In the struggle for guns that the author spared no expense to describe, no matter how rare the figure of "Big Xia" was, the backbone supporting all this was the military member and secretary of the county party committee. As Dai Hongbin said, this is a person who takes big things. In July 1934, the Tangyuan Guerrilla Brigade was expanded into the Guerrilla Corps, with Xia Yunjie as the political commissar, Dai Hongbin as the commander, and Zhang Renqiu, chief of staff. The team consisted of nearly 500 people and was organized into 3 squadrons. He speaks in a Shandong accent, speaks in a leisurely manner, and is an orderly political commissar who focuses on three things. First, according to the "Provisional Regulations on the Northeast People's Revolutionary Army and Red Guerrillas" (draft), the political commissar is determined as the party representative. All military and political orders must be jointly studied and decided by the political commissar, the commander-in-chief, and the chief of staff, and finally signed by the political commissar.In this way, the extreme democratization in which there was democracy but no centralization and a hundred mouths chaotically ruled the country in the past can be corrected immediately. The second is to expand the anti-Japanese united front.In the past, we only talked about the united front at the lower levels, but now we must not forget the lower levels and pay close attention to the upper levels.Zhang Chuanfu led the group anyway, Feng Zhigang's "Civil and Military Squad" participated in the guerrilla corps, all under the unified guidance of Xia Yunjie. The third is to take the initiative to attack, expand the guerrilla zone, and create red territory.The guerrilla corps was divided into two groups, one led by Dai Hongbin, centered on Zuimagou, and expanded to the surrounding area.Xia Yunjie commanded the cavalry and united with some mountain and forest teams to continuously attack the enemy and puppet strongholds in Heijinhe and Taipingchuan.Accompanied by victory is naturally the development of party organizations and guerrillas, and the expansion of guerrilla areas and red territory. By the end of the year, Tangyuan County had more than 1,000 party members, and mass organizations such as anti-Japanese associations, women's associations, children's groups, anti-rape teams, etc., spread almost all over the villages, and the anti-Japanese association alone had more than 5,000 members. In the winter of 1936, "Zhu Xinyang's Report on All the Work in North Manchuria" stated: The main feature of the Sixth Army is the cooperation between the local and team work, followed by the good internal party organization and political education and good influence on the masses.Since joining the three armed forces, it has grown the fastest among the anti-Japanese troops in North Manchuria in 1936, almost two-thirds of which have grown, and has attracted great attention from Japan and Manchuria. It is a well-disciplined military unit. The Hegang Coal Mine, which is quite famous today, was called Kuangshan Town at that time, and there were Japanese garrison teams and two fake mine teams stationed there, and its security was second only to Tangyuan County.Gao Yuchun, secretary of the Heli District Party Committee, sneaked into the town and stayed at the home of anti-Japanese member Shi Qingjiu.Shi Qingjiu is the bodyguard of Kanai Jianji, the deputy minister of mining, and has won the trust of the Japanese.Gao Yuchun developed many anti-Japanese members among the workers and the mine team, and he knew the enemy's situation well. On May 22, 1936, Xia Yunjie commanded the army to attack the mining town.The power grid is pulled around the mine. First use a shovel to hollow out the lower part, and then use a large wooden pole to pry up the wires, and people can get through. Feng Zhigang, the leader of the 3rd Regiment, led the 3rd Regiment to blow up the suspension bridge and the garage, and blocked the barracks of the Japanese garrison and the mine team. This was a relatively large battle commanded by Xia Yunjie after the establishment of the army. Of course, the result of the battle was not only in hardware such as how many enemies were eliminated and how many materials were seized. On November 21, to raise supplies for the expedition to Foshan (now Jiayin), Xia Yunjie was ambushed by the puppet security team of Tangyuan County when Xia Yunjie led a team in Ding Dagan. One thigh was broken, bleeding profusely, and he died five days later. In November 1936 when the snow was falling, the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance lost two army commanders in a row: Wang Detai and Xia Yunjie. The first time Xia Yunjie was injured was in June 1934 when he attacked the "Lianhuan Kiln" in Dagang, West Sichuan, Taiping (a compound set adjacent to the countryside, each family defended, and was called "Lianhuan Kiln" at the time), and the injury was on the head.The second time was at the end of the same year. There is no record of where the injury was. It was very serious. It took 5 months to heal in a secret camp.He had smoked opium before he participated in the revolution. After this serious injury, he used opium to relieve pain and became addicted. Now when I hear that someone takes drugs, this person is basically not a good thing, useless.It was not the case back then.One is what will be written later. At that time, there were a lot of big tobacco plants, and it was easy to get. The tobacco soil was still circulating in the market like currency. When the money (referring to the depreciation of the currency-editor’s note) was even recognized, the tobacco soil was not recognized. The second is that the poor have no money to treat their illnesses, and it is very common in the countryside to eat some big cigarettes.As mentioned earlier, one of the criteria for judging whether it is good or bad is the number of people who smoke opium.That kind of occupation, life in the mountains and forests, winter cold and summer tide, how many people don't suffer from this disease or that disease?The only "panacea" with immediate results is opium. Few of the anti-union elders interviewed by the author have never been injured, and few have never eaten (smoked) opium.If you are injured, you can eat a piece of soybeans to relieve the pain, and you can run back with the team.But there is a rule that you can only eat it 3 times, and you can only endure the pain after that, and you will become addicted if you eat it again. The seriousness of Xia Yunjie's problem is not only because of his addiction, but also because he is the political commissar of the Tangyuan Guerrilla Corps.Party representatives puffing clouds and smoking opium, what kind of image, what kind of influence, how can they lead the team? Everyone looked anxious, and some people advised him to quit smoking.This man with a strong will, when he became addicted to cigarettes, yawned, snot and tears flowed, and when he couldn't stand it anymore, he ran wildly all over the mountains and plains. According to the "Salvation Times" in Paris on July 10, 1937, it was "hanging himself upside down on the beam to resist smoking addiction, and he gave up opium". When the Tangyuan Guerrilla was established, there were only a few Han Chinese among the more than 40 people.In the guerrilla corps at this time, except for Xia Yunjie, Dai Hongbin, and Zhang Chuanfu, almost all the cadres above the squadron were Korean (ethnic) people, so there was a language communication barrier.Some people expressed their opinions in person, but they had to discuss them behind their backs, and of course they also talked about other things.Some people can't speak Chinese, and some can speak and stutter, so naturally they speak Korean.Xia Yunjie felt that these people were making small moves to oppose him. At this moment, a team member named Zhao Dongguo was arrested when he was sent to perform a mission.Such people will be subject to review after returning to the team.He first said that he ran back by himself, but later he was tortured to extract a confession, and he said that the enemy released him.Put it back and ask you to do it?Who have you been in touch with?Are they the "Minsheng Corps"?As a result, all the officers and soldiers of the Korean (family) were bitten out. First, the chief of staff Zhang Renqiu was shot, followed by the two squadron leaders Liu Dongjin and Cui Qumo, the team leader Park Dongshan and the team member Jin Haojing and others.Zhang Renqiu is the teacher who went to Wutong River to set up a model school with Cui Shiquan in Chapter 2. He graduated from the Whampoa Military Academy and participated in the Guangzhou Uprising. He was nicknamed "Big Zhang".Liu Enshu, who was only 18 years old, was shot without any trial because she was Zhang Renqiu's wife.Team member Li Dongshan had the habit of keeping a diary, and the diary became evidence of "providing information to the Japanese", so he was naturally executed. The rest of the Korean (ethnic) officers and soldiers were locked in the house and interrogated one by one, and many were tortured to extract confessions.Only one person was not suspected because he acted as an interpreter for Xia Yunjie. On July 17, 1937, "Letter from Zhao Shangzhi and Zhang Shouzhen to Brother Xiang" stated: Comrade Xia Yunjie, a political commissar, with his own leadership team and Tangyuan local party, is corrupt, arrogance, smoking opium, etc. economic selfish abuse and unclear accounts, and his actions are full of bureaucracy.Canceling the party and political work, although the Minsheng Corps was purged, politically the Minsheng Corps has captured the core masses and some cadres, and has already had a deep-rooted influence. Some cadres believe that the revolution cannot be carried out unless Lao Xia is killed.For example, Dai Hongbin, Chen Shaobin, Pei Gengtian, Xu Wenbin, Zhang Xingde, etc... cannot solve everything with the struggle that the party should have. Sixty-five years later, at the home of the old man Li Zaide in Beijing, the old man said to the author: At that time, I was not yet eighteen years old, so I didn't know what "Minshengtuan" was, and I didn't understand how people like Zhang Renqiu became "Minshengtuan" and "counter-revolutionaries."Pei Jingtian is the captain of No. 3 Squadron. He and Pei Chengchun are siblings. Pei Jingtian is the third younger brother. The other two younger brothers were both guerrillas. They both died at this time.We are all from the Wutong River, and we know the roots and the bottom.They also went all out. During the interrogation, they said that our whole family came out to revolution, two elder brothers died, and the revenge has not been avenged, and we have become "counter-revolutionaries."Pei Jingtian burst into tears.Sister Pei also said, everyone knows how Li Zaide's mother died, why is she a little girl who has become the object of suspicion?Is there such a reason in the world? After this fight, I will not be interrogated, and it seems that Sister Pei has not been interrogated again. I have loved to talk and laugh since I was a child, and adults say that I am not like a girl, and I am not stable.When my father died, I was five years old and didn't understand anything.After my mother died, I was stable for a while.After joining the guerrillas, the big family of the revolutionary team treated me as a little sister, and soon returned to my original appearance.But after rebelling against the "Minsheng Corps", I was completely "secure".At that time, when Korean comrades met, those who could speak Chinese would speak Chinese, and those who could not speak Chinese did not speak Korean, as if they did not know each other.Ten years later, I was the director of the Women's Federation in Helong County, where almost all ethnic Koreans lived. I suddenly found that I couldn't speak a lot of Korean. After Xia Yunjie's death, the army held a very urgent meeting and elected Dai Hongbin, the head of the 4th regiment, as the army commander. Dai Hongbin, nearly 1.80 meters tall, is quite strong, with a slightly hunched back.He was born in Liangbanshantun, Fushun County, Fengtian Province in 1911. At the age of eight, he moved to Beihuang with his family and moved to Kaoshantun, Xibeigou, Tangyuan County. After the establishment of the 6th Army, it was the head of the 2nd regiment, the 4th regiment, the acting commander, and the commander."The Situation of the Anti-Japanese Struggle in Northeast China and the Development and Organizational Overview of the Anti-Japanese Forces" quoted earlier wrote: Chief Captain—Old Dai (Hong Bin), 26 years old, a farmer, joined the party during the "September 18th" and participated in the first guerrilla group in Tangyuan (later failed and eliminated) and the creation of a new guerrilla group for the second time. Worked in the area for two months of publicity, and worked in the "Chunshan" team of the Volunteer Army for four months.Fight resolutely.Weaknesses are some fearful emotions, ability to implement the party's line, resolute struggle within the party, faith among the masses, some military experience, and poor learning spirit. The first move of strategic significance after the new army commander took office was to implement the resolution of the Seventh Standing Committee Meeting of the Provisional Provincial Committee of North Manchuria, command the main force of the army to march westward, and open up the guerrilla zone in the Heinen Plain. In July 1937, Dai Hongbin led the security regiment of the military headquarters, the special branch company (artillery) directly under it, the 4th regiment of the 2nd division, the 5th regiment, the 11th regiment and the 14th regiment of the 4th division, and embarked on a journey.Drawing lessons from the 3rd Army, Dai Hongbin avoided towns and walked through the uninhabited Xiaoxing'an Mountains virgin forest. After more than 20 days, he arrived at Badaolinzi, Suiling County, and joined forces with the 3rd Division of the 6th Army's advance team and the 3rd Army's 6th Division. Concentrating a large number of troops in one place is a taboo in guerrilla warfare.Dai Hongbin believes that the stronghold should be attacked to obtain supplies before being discovered by the enemy, so as to facilitate the next step.A meeting of cadres above the division level was held, and it was decided to attack the Ye family shack first. Zhang Guangdi commanded the 6th Division of the 3rd Army, took down the Hou's shack in one fell swoop, and disarmed all the pseudo-self-defense regiments. The 2nd Division of the 6th Army also disarmed the Guanglintun Puppet Self-Defense Regiment at the scheduled time.The outskirts of the Ye family shack were cleared, but the vanguard went the wrong way, alarming the enemy.The surprise attack turned into a strong attack, and they fought hard for two hours, killing more than 20 people and injuring more than 40 people.The enemy's reinforcements arrived, so they had to retreat and leave. The reason for the defeat is said to be that Dai Hongbin made a mistake in command and was superstitious about Tekolian's mortar.During the Western Expedition, the shells were damp, and only two shots were fired after dozens of rounds were fired.If not, can it be beaten?Is lack of experience and not knowing how to handle cannons an important reason? The first battle was thwarted, and it was brought back 17 days later. On August 27, when Li Gang was in Helen County, he encountered three vehicles full of Japanese soldiers. The 2nd Division preemptively destroyed 2 vehicles, killed and injured 30 devils, and seized a batch of weapons, including heavy machine guns. However, this Western Expedition basically came to an end here, and Dai Hongbin led his team back to Tangyuan. Insufficient understanding of the strategic significance of the Western Expedition, the first expedition, lack of experience, and lack of self-confidence are not reasons for turning back halfway.Not to mention that the practice of the 3rd Army has proved that it is feasible to open up guerrilla areas in the Henen Plain.Dai Hongbin was expelled from the party and still acts as the commander of the army. In terms of gaining and losing party membership, Dai Hongbin and Zhao Shangzhi are somewhat similar, but they are not the same. Dai Hongbin, who was born as a farm laborer, was a well-known "Dai Banlazi" when he was ten years old and started doing labor for others.After becoming an army commander, some people were embarrassed to call him "Dai Banlazi" again, but they got used to it, and sometimes they couldn't help blurting it out. Since the beginning of seizing the gun, no matter what the author has written or not written, this "Dai Banlazi", who has not read the book all day, has almost never fallen, and sometimes has wonderful performances.No one knows what Dai Hongbin would look like if he was well-educated and familiar with military books. The living "Dai Banlazi" in the history of the Anti-Japanese Army is one of the rare elite figures.In the words of the old people in the country, it is called "human essence". The guns of the guerrillas were searched by Huzi, and Dai Hongbin came up with a trick. He went to meet Huzitou with the captain in robes and top hats, and called himself the "County Government Plainclothes Team", trying to get the guns back.Although he was not successful, he was also seen to be clever and wise. In the words of the time, he was called "the eye of the Tao".In the first battle after the guerrillas stood still, he was able to set his sights on the terrain like the neck of the gourd to lay an ambush.As for negotiating with Zhang Chuanfu alone, needless to say, who knows what ifs, what ifs and accidents will happen? It can be said that his "weakness is a little scary", which is not wrong, and it even seems to have a kind of foresight. In February 1936, Zhao Shangzhi led the main force of the 3rd Army on his way back to Qingcheng and Tieli, and wrote a letter instructing Zhang Shouzhen, director of the Political Department of the 6th Army, to take down the old cash drawer at all costs. The old cash cabinet is located in the hinterland of the Xiaoxing'an Mountains and the middle reaches of the Tangwang River. It is a place where money and food are distributed to loggers.In the south of Xiaoxing'an Mountains lies Zhangguangcai Mountain, which connects to the Wanda Mountains. Tangwang River, the main tributary of Songhua River, flows for more than 400 kilometers in Tangyuan, and more than 700 tributaries of Tangwang River have become the blood of Xiaoxing'an Mountains.The frost-free period here is only about 100 days a year. The climate is harsh and inaccessible. Only a few hunters and mountain people can enter and leave. It is naturally a natural place to build a secret camp. There is a gang of beards in the Tangwang River Ditch. The leader, Yu Zhen, is known as "Yu Sipao".They dominate the Tangwang River Ditch, and they have to pay tribute to them when they go into the mountains to cut wood, burn charcoal, and hunt. Other beards are afraid of them, and no one dares to provoke them.After the Japanese invaders occupied Tangyuan, they bought more than 100 people into the forest police brigade, and Yu Sipao was the captain of the brigade. Seven Japanese policemen served as instructors and instructors to protect the Japanese puppet felling timber, and sometimes sneaked into the forest. anti-union. Zhang Shouzhen smoked one after another. Old man Wang Jun said, this man has the ability to make a surprise attack plan.At that time, it was preparing to attack the Hegang Coal Mine, and the main force was on the side of the army commander Xia Yunjie, and there was only Dai Hongbin's 4th regiment here.Li Fenglin's guerrilla company in Wadangang District was quite capable of fighting, and there was a "Yanwang team" with more than 20 people nearby. They were all transferred and set off against the wind and snow. When it was dark 3 days later, I rushed to Chabaqi. It was the enemy's first barrier, a wooden house by the river, and two large courtyards on the opposite bank.Zhang Shouzhen thought that he should not be reckless, and after discussing with Dai Hongbin, he made a decisive decision to capture the prisoners first.This battle was fought so beautifully, the key is to know the enemy's situation well. Li Fenglin lay down in front of the window of the wooden house, licked the broken window paper with his tongue, and saw that two policemen were sitting on the kang drinking.As soon as he waved his hand, Wang Jun kicked open the door and rushed in, and the box gun on the head of the big machine was right on. Escorting two policemen to the compound on the other side of the river, the sentinels pulled the bolts of their guns and asked questions from afar.The policeman who was held in the back with the muzzle of a gun by Zhang Shouzhen said that the two of us had returned.Ask why there are so many people behind, and they say that they are ordinary people carrying food at the foot of the mountain.When he got close, Wang Jun stepped forward suddenly, covered the sentry's mouth with his hands that were stuffed with gloves, and stumbled under his feet, pushing him down on the snow.Li Fenglin led a group of people straight to the east courtyard, stabbed a dozen rifles through the windows, and shouted that whoever made a move and killed them would go into the house and hand in their guns. A squadron is stationed here, and the west courtyard is the squadron headquarters.When Zhang Shouzhen and Dai Hongbin led people to rush in, several leaders were lying on the kang smoking opium.A quick-witted boy with yellow hair picked up a cigarette lamp and hit it at the door, then turned over and jumped to grab the wall.Zhang Shouzhen's "ba" shot hit the wall an inch away from Huang Mao's hand.This boy is not honest, Wang Jun rushed to the kang, grabbed the yellow hair, and almost pressed his head into the crotch of the fat Burmese crotch pants. The key is to capture Yu Sipao's brother, Song Xibin, the squadron leader known as the "Fifth Pao", and let him lead the way, confuse the enemy, and disarm the old Qiangcao's enemies without any trouble. In Songshugou inside the old cash drawer, there are two beautiful wooden houses, the instructor Senshan lives in one, and the other six devils live in one.Li Fenglin led 10 people, surrounded the house, and entered the Morishan building.This kid was also lying on the kang, blowing clouds and mist.Li Fenglin ignored him, went to the kang to pick up the bastard box hanging on the wall.Morishan let out an "ow" and hugged Li Fenglin by the waist, trying to throw him down.Li Fenglin, known as "Big Old Li", was tall and strong, and he just threw the boy onto the red-hot stove on the ground.Looking at Mori Shan who was screaming like a pig, Li Fenglin casually shot him. In this battle commanded by Zhang Shouzhen, 7 devils were eliminated, more than 100 puppet troops were captured, 1 machine gun, more than 100 long and short guns, tens of thousands of bullets and 1 radio station were seized, as well as tens of thousands of catties of rice noodles and two large tanks of smoke and soil. , cleared the way for the establishment of a secret camp in the Tangwang River Valley. As mentioned earlier, Zhang Shouzhen is the well-known Li Zhaolin in China. In August 1945, when the Soviet Red Army sent troops to the Northeast, the officers and soldiers of the Anti-Union Teaching Brigade changed their names before returning to China. Zhang Shouzhen, whose original name was Li Liesheng, changed his name to "Li Zhaolin" again.However, the pseudonym "Zhang Shouzhen" he used for a long time during the Northeast War of Resistance is little known. In 1909, Zhang Shouzhen was born in Xixiaorongguantun, Liaoyang County, Fengtian Province. After graduating from high school, he went home to work in agriculture. In 1930, he was arrested for promoting anti-Japanese. In the same year, he joined the Communist Youth League in Beiping. In the second year, he transferred to the Communist Party and was sent back to the Northeast to work in the Volunteer Army. In October 1932, he went to Benxi Lake to engage in the labor movement. In 1933, he served as an officer and head of the Military Commission of the Fengtian Special Committee. In September, he served as the head of the Military Commission of the Manchuria Provincial Party Committee. After April 1934, he successively served as the deputy captain of the Zhuhe Guerrilla Brigade, the acting political commissar of the Hadong Detachment, the head of the Propaganda Section, the head of the 1st Regiment of the 3rd Army, the director of the Political Department of the 2nd Regiment, and the director of the Political Department of the 1st Division. In January 1936, he was the director of the General Political Department of the Northeast People's Anti-Japanese United Army, and at the same time served as the director of the Political Department of the Army. In September, he served as the director of the General Political Department of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Allied Army. In "The Process of Zhang Shouzhen's Independence Activities" (biography) written on September 10, 1942, he claimed to have "received six warnings from the party and two serious warnings, all of which were political mistakes", and said: In October, because of the enemy's massive offensive, I put forward the slogan "break through the enemy's encirclement and open up new guerrilla areas", which opposed the opinions of the inspectors of the provincial party committee and the county party committee. The provincial party committee thought it was escapism.At that time, the Provincial Party Committee advocated the slogan of "protecting the guerrilla zone and preventing the enemy from entering the guerrilla zone", as well as failing to write reports to the Provincial Party Committee frequently, setting a pistol on fire and inadvertently injuring my own comrades, etc., the Provincial Party Committee revoked my leadership work as an agent of politics. Commissioner, the party punished me and gave me a serious warning.In November, Zhao Shangzhi was injured. As the head of the propaganda section, I cooperated with (cooperated with) the local party headquarters to support the activities of Zhuhe, Yanshou, and Binxian County in the serious situation of the Japanese invasion in winter, and attacked the enemy to maintain our strength.In December, the headquarters sent me to Fangzheng County to lead the Sixth Corps, opened up a new guerrilla zone in Fangzheng, established an anti-Japanese united front with Xie Wendong's troops of the Tulongshan uprising, and united the vast forest volunteer army. This burly, big-eyed, high-nosed, dignified-looking, serious, stable man from the Northeast, who seems unapproachable and eloquent in speech, has rich experience, has a strong will, is good at independent thinking, and is the kind who can take on great responsibilities A professional revolutionist—his splendid chapters mainly came after he served as the commander-in-chief of the 3rd Route Army. The Tangyuan guerrillas attacked the "serial kiln" in Taipingchuan, which caused a shock.Zhang Chuanfu led the uprising of the self-defense group, which had a greater impact.As the hearts of the people wanted, the rich and powerful joined the guerrillas one after another, needless to say the poor people, and Taipingchuan became a popular place.Then take Taipingchuan as the center, expand to Gejinhe, Heijinhe, Beibeigou, Jixinggou, Qiongbangzigou, Zhulian Town and other places. In the spring of 1936, Tangyuan County People's Government was also established.The people in the red land stood guard and guarded their hometowns, sent intelligence and food to the Anti-Alliance, and joined the army to participate in the war.Like Jixinggou, there are more than 40 families, and more than 20 people have joined the guerrillas and army successively. These are similar to the red land in other areas described above, and it is even more obvious that the people of Tangyuan are united in hatred. It was the riot in Gejinhe District on September 18, 1937. The devils once attacked Jixinggou, and left after burning and killing.In Sihe Village, where the Gejinhe District Committee is located, more than 20 devils stationed in the compound of Dingjiafenfang, and the garrison commander was called Mingyue.Devils killed 10 people in Jixinggou, all of them were unarmed civilians except one sentry of the Self-Defense Forces.Zhao Yufeng's daughter ran to the river and was caught, raped, pushed into the river and drowned.In Sihe Village, these beasts shot and killed two armor chiefs, then chopped up the corpses and threw them on the dung pile outside the door. The Tangyuan County Party Committee decided to mobilize the masses and held an anti-Japanese riot on September 18.Not only to commemorate the 6th anniversary of the "September 18th" incident, but also to lure snakes out of their holes and wipe out these devils. On the night of the 17th, thousands of people from various districts brought old foreign cannons, big knives, pistols, sticks, spades and picks, and axes and saws to the area of ​​Gejin River Baobaoshan. They sawed down more than 30 electric poles and burned down two bridges on the Gejin River. , and excavated a trench more than 6 kilometers long from Baobaoshan to Laomugang.The women's association and children's group brought water and food. The 3rd Division of the 6th Army and the guerrilla companies in each district have already been deployed, ready to block the enemies who may disturb from all walks of life. On the morning of the 18th, red flags were waving on Baobao Mountain, and the rioters held a swearing-in meeting.Gao Yuchun, secretary of the county party committee, made a speech, calling on the people to remember the tragic day of "September 18" and to join the people of the whole country in a bloody battle against the invaders to the end.After the meeting, a demonstration was held, leaflets were distributed to the villagers along the way, and someone was sent to Mingyue to deliver a letter, calling out to him: Aren't you the one who shouts every day to fight the Anti-Japanese League and catch "bandits"?It's all delivered to you today, please come out and fight and catch it! During the riot, the enemies stationed in the county seat and other areas never dared to move out.As for Mingyue, the devil, he first turned his "bushido" into a turtle with a shrunken head, and then disguised himself as a commoner, and ran to the county seat after dark.For the rest of the devils, there is only "Tao" left to escape. With such a red territory and people, it is natural for the Army to become a powerful force in the Xiajiang area. The secret camp of the 4th Army was located in Dayezigou.大叶子沟位于宝清、富锦两县交界处，沟口有两个屯子，李金围子和杨荣围子。杨荣围子西边有个孤立的方家大院，是进出大叶子沟的必经之地。方家是当地有名的大户，家大业大，院墙高厚，修筑炮楼，养着炮手。 4军刚到这里时，李延平让军部陈副官去方家，说明我们是抗日联军，不抢不夺，但要住下房子，用些粮食，希望合作。陈副官去后半个多小时回来了，说不行，他们骂咱们是胡子，让咱们走，不走就打。李延平让陈副官再去一趟，告诉他们我们就是路过，让他们别妨碍我们，这样双方相安无事。陈副官走了10多分钟后，李延平下令部队成一字队形，拉大距离从方家大院西边通过。正走着，大院里枪响了，是冲天上打的，警告停止前进。这时陈副官也跑回来了，说不行，不让过。 部队趴在待割的高粱地里。what to do?大家都觉得这样就向后转太丢人，没面子，往后还怎么在这地界活动？就决定打。官兵在高粱地里毛腰前进，接近大院后，机枪、步枪向炮楼上射起来。从下午4点多钟打到天黑，根本攻不动，秘书彭施鲁还负伤了。 彭施鲁老人说，杨荣围子有伪自卫团，我们没把他们当回事儿。用那时的话讲，那叫“官家的买卖”。伪满时讲“磨洋工”，给日本人干活尚且磨洋工，这卖命的事谁肯舍命向前？这地主大院就不同了。炮手是花钱雇的，地主不会随便什么人都用来充数。天下的男孩子都喜欢枪，如今是玩具枪，那时有钱人家玩的可是真家伙。继承、发达家业，不光需要经营头脑，还得有保护家业的本事。多少有钱大户都让胡子打开了，从此家道败落。像汤原县三大户之一的夏家，有上千垧土地，200多支枪，还有机枪、小炮，被胡子抢了，从此一蹶不振。那时有钱人家的男人，少有没枪的，甚至一家就是个武装单位，所谓“打虎亲兄弟，上阵父子兵”。而且，这些大院从选址时起，就是有打仗眼光的。像方家大院，孤零零建在个坡岗上，居高临下，周围都是开阔地，光凭轻武器，怎么打？ 1937年1月，军政治部主任黄玉清率30多名骑兵，来到大叶子沟密营，免不了又唠起方家大院。路过那里得绕圈子，而且有这么个“钉子户”钉在那里，其他一些大户就有了榜样，影响根据地的开辟。如果他们再跟日寇勾结起来，那对密营更是一种威胁了。 黄玉清出个主意，并由他亲自率队实施。 大年三十这天上午，方家大院门前来了一队“皇军”，叽里哇啦一通“日本话”，要进去搜查“马胡子”。这回方家人可惹不起。黄玉清在门口留下一个班警戒，进院首先占领炮台，待把枪都收缴了，就实话实说了，你们看怎么办吧。方家表示认罚，并承诺与抗联合作。 东北抗联11个军，少有没打过这种大院的。成功的战例，几乎都是化装智取。像富锦县头号大户何木林，那时连伪县太爷都少有车坐，何家光小轿车（那时叫“小卧车”）就有两辆，别的就不用说了。戴鸿宾穿上伪警察署长的服装，徐光海扮作日本指导官，裴敬天为翻译官，用朝鲜话当日本话糊弄何木林，就进了何家大院。 从当年到今天，笔者都未见到称方家为“反动地主”、“汉奸”的，这当然不仅仅因为方家确实兑现了承诺。 无论何时何地，大户大院那威严、厚重的大门，都不会轻易向任何不知根知底的武装开启。你说你不抢不夺，那些使大户家破人亡的胡子，说得比你还好听。但这并不意味着他们就想与你为敌，就像他们给“皇军”开门，并不等于甘愿当汉奸一样。他们只是信不过你，而且认为能够抵抗得了你，而日本子是抵抗不了的。如果可以自己选择，他们中的绝大多数都不会选择日本人当靠山。实际上，在那种乱世，特别是各种武装常来常往的偏远地区，他们希望与任何武装都维持一种友好关系，绞尽脑汁为的就是两个字：生存。 方家大院不再是“钉子户”了，其他大户自然都跟着走了，杨荣围子和李金围子一带，很快成了红地盘。 打下老钱柜后，3军、6军在人烟绝迹的小兴安岭的深山密林中，建立了大青山、帽儿山、锅盔顶等10多处密营，这是东北抗联经营得最成功的密营群之一。 当年和今天，都有人将密营误作根据地。 1941年3月28日，张寿篯说：“树林子不是根据地。” 如果不是笔者孤陋寡闻，那么从土地革命战争到抗日战争、解放战争时期，关内都没有密营或类似密营的处所。密营里有兵工厂、被服厂、医院，可以办学，当然也能储存粮食、给养，后期还开荒种地。官兵有时也会一师一团地到密营休整一段时间，但这都是临时的、无规律的。除了后勤人员和伤病员外，平时密营里没有战斗员存在。如果说山寨是胡子的活动基地，那密营就是抗联的后勤基地，而且只能是部分的后勤基地。 根据地必具的条件是人民。没有人民，根据地就没了根。 密营是一种极个别的、极端艰难困苦的游击战争的产物。抗联之所以不得不在人迹罕至的深山老林里建密营，只是因为那里远离人群，比较隐蔽、安全。而当抗联只能依托密营进行活动时，那就是最艰苦的时日到了，甚至就是最后的斗争了。 李在德老人说： 我参加游击队后第一次战斗，是在格金河沟里的炭窑。天快亮了，我们正准备出发，汤原县伪警察大队来了，想包围我们。步枪、机枪那个响啊，还听他们喊“大裤裆”没多少枪呀，抓活的呀。游击队大都是朝鲜族人，朝鲜族衣服肥大，他们就叫我们“大裤裆”、“大裤裆队”。 枪一响，我就蒙了，有的吓得尖叫，有的顾头不顾腚趴那儿一动不动。男队员枪都不够，女队员哪有枪呀？那时也没经验，想不到让徒手队员抢救伤员，有人嫌我们碍事，就让我们“到一边去”。到哪去呀？我看有人往山上跑，就跟着跑，直跑得上气不接下气瘫那儿了。 1930年为准备武装暴动，梧桐河模范学校办军事训练班时，我们这些低年级学生也拿根棒子练队列，练站岗放哨抓特务，搞紧急集合、野战演习，还练胆量。练胆中最可怕也最令人毛骨悚然的，是半夜三更让你去坟地送情报，把张纸条压在哪个坟头的什么地方。好大一片坟地，白天走到那儿，一些人还得唱歌给自己壮胆。这回领导还安排个人在坟地里，怪里怪气地学什么鸟兽叫，或是坐在那里抽烟，烟袋锅子一亮一亮的，鬼火似的。可有了第一次，第二次就差不多了，打仗也一样。经过几次，慢慢地，枪一响就能判断出距离，再判断敌人是奔你来的，还是和什么队伍打起来了。是抗联？山林队？敌人是日军？还是伪军？包括双方兵力，听枪声也能判断出个“大概其”（大概）。就琢磨该冲上去增援，还是就地抢占制高点——当然得听指挥员的了。 我年纪小，大家都把我当孩子，照顾我。行军过河，有时水深流急，就背我过河。刘太民叔叔背得最多。参军前我们是邻居，我叫他叔叔，后来他牺牲了。如今在电视上看到河，我就会想起他，想起他那宽厚的肩背，看到他往地上一蹲，说：来，丫头。 到个新区，老百姓不了解抗联，见到队伍就想跑。我们就摘下帽子，让他们看我们是女的。女人当兵，看着稀奇，拿着枪也不像对男人那样害怕。我们就乘机进行宣传。一些男队员就说：这帮丫头片子真厉害，一个个“嘴茬子”（口才）“吧吧的”（类似呱呱叫）。 东北人管姑娘叫“丫头”，大姑娘叫“大丫头”，小姑娘叫“小丫头”，还有叫“丫头片子”、“丫头蛋子”。因为我年纪最小，前面又给加个“小”字。打李敏参军上队后，这个“小”字就送给她了。 李敏老人说： 我的母亲是农历一九三三年五月二十一去世的，那年我九岁。母亲下地干活，叫大雨淋了，回家一病不起，几天后就不行了。料理完后事，人们都走了，我说：爸，从明天起，我做饭了。爸爸瞅着我，眼珠一动不动，好长时间，转过身去，眼泪“吧嗒吧嗒”往下掉——这是我唯一一次见到父亲落泪。 父亲叫李石远，1920年前后从朝鲜来到东北。我记事时，就听他唱首歌，头两句是“两千万同胞联合起来，墓地下的灵魂也要抗战”。他是安邦河区第三任区委书记，1938年秋为抗联筹粮时牺牲的。那时我参军快两年了，参军后再没见过爸爸，梦里经常见到。爸爸抱我骑在他的脖子上，在大草甸子上跑啊跑啊，又像在云彩里飞。先是领导知道了，后来同志们也知道了，只瞒着我一个人，对我更关心了。 母亲去世不久，我哥就上山了。游击队经常在山里活动，我们那地方管参军、上队叫“上山”。哥哥叫李云峰，比我大六岁，在6军当过团政治部主任，1942年被派到哈尔滨做地下工作，被捕后牺牲。是冯仲云告诉我的。最后一个亲人也没了。我什么也没说，光淌眼泪。有人说我挺坚强，有人说不对，得让她哭出声来，不然会作病。我脑子木木的，就哭出一声又没声了，只是泪水哗哗淌，跟听说父亲牺牲后一样。 哥哥参军了，父亲顾不上家，经常晚上也不回来，家里家外就我一个人。种地回来，累得不想动弹，有剩饭扒拉几口，没有就上炕睡了。黄鼠狼叼小鸡，我也学大人的样儿做了夹子，一张皮子能换40斤小米呢。结果黄鼠狼没夹着，把自己夹得满手血。夏季大烟采浆熬膏，跟着大人出去割大烟挣钱。那时的庄稼院，花钱的地方不多，可盐呀什么的，总得买吧。父亲有时在家里开会，也得给那些叔叔弄点儿“好嚼裹儿”呀。 大烟长得高了，我得踮着脚，才能够着那烟桃。累不怕，关键是担心自己不在家，错过了哥哥来接我上山的时间。 哥哥临走前就说好了，让他过两年回来接我。总不见影儿，我就害怕是不是牺牲了。父亲知道，说好好的呢。可我是等不得了，父亲摸着我的脑袋，长叹一声，说要上山就上山吧，我也顾不上你。 我是1936年11月参军的，老交通员李升（人称“抗联之父”——编者注）给送去6军4师的。 李升老人中上个头，留着山羊胡子，快七十岁的人了，身板硬实得难以想象，北满山林没有他没去过的地方。1939年冬，还一个人去长白山，与1军接通关系。同行的还有个交通员王仁，还有和我一样上山的李桂兰。她不到二十岁，又白又胖，哥哥是洼丹岗区委书记李凤林，后来上队当连长、团长。他们全家抗日，李桂兰做妇女工作，因身份暴露上队。 一行4人扮作一家人，给我当爷爷绰绰有余的李升是父亲，王仁是儿子，李桂兰是儿媳妇，有人问就说是送儿媳妇回娘家。 沿着汤旺河谷走了两天，没人家了，晚上点堆篝火，在雪地上露营。头一回，哪受得了呀，身子哆嗦成刺猬了。那也高兴呀，上山了。至于脚上打泡了，腿走肿了，就更不算什么了。 铁力县东岔河张把头木营附近，有个省委交通站，在那儿见到北满临时省委书记冯仲云。李升向他介绍我们俩是上山的，冯仲云说欢迎、欢迎，一打量我，第二个“欢迎”就少了个字。李升老人连忙给我讲好话，说这个小丫头能吃苦，这一路上没一句“屁话”（“屁”是认输、服软的意思）。我也赶紧说我什么都不怕，什么都能干。冯仲云像我爸那样摸着我的头，说欢迎你，小同志。 高兴之余，还是觉得没底。晚饭后问李升：冯省委说了算吗？ 李升山羊胡子一撅，说：冯省委是“大先生”（有大学问的人），北满最大的官，他说欢迎了，谁还敢不欢迎？ 到了4师，政治部主任吴玉光，见了我就皱眉头，我的心一下子又悬起来。十二岁，没杆枪高，心虚呀。可一想到冯省委都欢迎了，又觉得底气挺足。也不知李升老人怎么跟他说的，反正是没撵我下山，让我留在师部当炊事员。 马司务长带队，下山背粮。粮食是地方党筹集的，送到山边，再由这些摆弄烧火棍的人背回山里。 马司务长留几个人在那儿观察敌情，敌人真就来了，一个排的伪军，都是骑兵。正好回来背粮的人到了，十几支枪就在雪地里支上了。老套筒、别拉旦、韩林春、连珠枪，少有重样的，关键是老旧，伙头军能有什么好枪呀，连人大都是淘汰下来的老弱病残，却也大都是老兵。待敌人进至50多米时，十几杆老枪齐放，前面的敌人落马了，后边的就掉头跑了。 敌人首先开火，白桦林树枝上的积雪纷纷落下，落进李敏的脖子里。她伸手去掏，边掏边东张西望左右的队员和前面的敌人，有种过年时看大人放鞭炮的感觉。马司务长喊了声什么，她没听清，脑袋就被一只大手按进雪窝子里，喘不过气儿。她觉得快要憋死了，那只手松开了，随即是炸耳根子的排子枪声，眼前是渐远的模糊的雪烟。 这就是李敏上队后参加的第一次战斗。
