This is a true story that took place on March 10, 1944. On this day, more than 3,000 puppet troops suddenly surrounded the Guojiayu and Xuejiayu base areas. The Fengshan County Anti-Japanese Brigade, the county government, and the county committee are all stationed in Guojiayu. The enemy suddenly surrounded Guoyu at night. The fighting started after dawn. The fighting was very fierce. In order to cover the transfer of the county committee, county government and ordinary people, the anti-Japanese county brigade sacrificed many soldiers, and many seriously injured soldiers were rescued by the ordinary people. This The story is just a microcosm of many examples of people in the base area risking their lives to rescue the wounded and supporting the military in front of the troops.

The story of a blind man rescuing the wounded on the Eighth Route Route (1) When the enemy attacks, our Fengshan Brigade counterattacks. When the enemy encircles us, we counterattack. During the battle, the lightly wounded continued to fight on the battlefield, while the severely wounded did not leave the battlefield. The battle was extremely fierce. At this time, there were difficulties in providing first aid to the seriously wounded, so the people of Mashan took the initiative to go to the battlefield to rescue the wounded. There was a blind fortune teller named Zhang Xitai in Madong Village. On the day of the Guojiayu battle, he went to Guojiayu to tell fortunes. The battle lasted from morning to about 2 o'clock in the afternoon. When the troops broke through, there were two wounded people hiding in the ravine. The enemy pursued our troops, but they withdrew without cleaning the battlefield and without noticing these seriously wounded soldiers.

Zhang Xisheng's wife, Zhang Dong, was passing by here with her child in her arms. When there was a fight, she got into a small stone house on the roadside. It happened that Zhang Xitai came back from fortune telling and also encountered a fight. She also hid in the stone house on the roadside. The gunfire stopped. , they walked out of the stone house, and the battlefield was filled with the suffocating smell of blood and gunpowder smoke. After Zhang Xisheng's wife found a few wounded people under the weir in the distance, she told the blind man Zhang Xitai: "Sir, there are a few wounded under the weir over there. Seriously wounded?" Zhang Xitai asked, "Is it the Eighth Route Army or the Imperial Army?" Zhang Xisheng's wife said, "I can't see clearly." Zhang Xitai said: "You go over and have a look", "I don't dare"; "Come on, you lead me over and take a look. If it is the Eighth Route Army, we will save them. If it is not the Eighth Route Army, we will not care." Zhang Xisheng's wife Zhang Dong Under the leadership of Zhang Xitai, she used one hand to lead the blind Zhang Xitai to the bamboo pole. When she arrived at the wounded, Zhang Xitai asked the wounded: "Which part are you from? Are you from the Imperial Association Army or the Eighth Route Army?" After a short while, , the injured soldier said intermittently: "We are... Fengshan... brigade." The same voice said with great difficulty: "Sir, you save him first, he is seriously injured. , please save him first."

Zhang Xitai said: "If you tell lies, even if I carry you down the mountain, I will report to the village and ask the militia to kill you. If you are the Eighth Route Army, I will risk my life to save you from the mountain." The wounded man said: "I am from the Fengshan Anti-Japanese Brigade, you save him first." The blind man Zhang Xitai said: "You are from the Eighth Route Army, I will save you." After that, he squatted down and asked Zhang Xisheng's wife to pull the seriously wounded man. The belt was carried on Zhang Xitai's back. Zhang Xisheng's wife held the child in one hand and led the way with the bamboo pole. The blind man carried the wounded man on his back and staggered on the rugged and centipede-like mountain road. They hid the wounded man in the northeast of Ma. In a mud house on the south side of Lingyi Hezhuang. Zhang Xitai had never done heavy work since he was a child. When he carried the first wounded person on his back, he was out of breath after walking a few steps and was so tired that he was sweating all over. He carried it twice in a row for nearly 6 miles. How big must a blind man be? What perseverance! A blind man was carrying a seriously injured person facing death on his back, and a woman with small feet was holding a child in one hand. She was pulling the blind man with a thin bamboo pole, risking being beheaded at any time, on this smoke battlefield. , rescue strange wounded people who have no blood relationship with them, how firm their belief is, how much they love the Eighth Route Army, on this rugged mountain road, facing the Japanese and puppet troops who may appear at any time, it can be said to be full of dangers, every step of the way Bu Jingxin. If they didn't have the courage to put their own life and death at risk, how could they have done such a touching and shocking deed. On the way, Zhang Xisheng's wife held the child in one hand and held the blind man in the other, and she had to try her best to maintain balance.The road down the mountain was rugged and very narrow in some places. At this time, she stood next to the blind man and carefully supported him while walking. Sometimes the blind man's feet slipped, and she wanted to make sure that the blind man could not fall over. She supported him with all her strength, so that Although she worked hard, she was able to keep the blind man walking steadily. No one can understand the hardships of such a situation. A weak woman, holding a child in her arms, stood on tiptoe with her little feet bruised with blood. She endured the pain. After assisting the blind man to carry the wounded man into the earthen house, she hugged the wounded man's legs with one hand and put her hand under his waist. Slowly put down the wounded man. When they put down the wounded man, the blind man and Zhang Xisheng's wife almost fainted from exhaustion. The two soldiers they memorized on the battlefield: one was Hou Yangli and the other was Xing Tingzheng (from Wangfang Village). Hou Yangli is from the Yuncheng and Junye areas. They are all wounded soldiers of the Fengshan County Anti-Japanese Brigade.

The people of Guojiayu sacrificed their lives to save the wounded (2)

The battle was fierce, and the battle came suddenly. The anti-Japanese county brigade was not prepared. The enemy suddenly surrounded them, and the troops struggled to break out. The fierce gunfire stopped, and people were shocked by the scene in front of them. In the fierce battle, many soldiers died on the battlefield, lying on the ground in random directions, and some remained silent. The suffocating smell of blood was everywhere. , it can be seen how tragic the battle was. Some of the villagers in the base area were crying. They wiped away the blood of the martyrs and buried them. In order to rescue the seriously injured, Guo Yanbai, Guo Yanping, Guo Yandong, and Guo Yanjin of Guojiayu took the initiative to organize a stretcher team to carry the seriously injured to retreat to the Xiaoyinzhuang area in Mashannantou. Just in the ditch north of Zhuangjia Valley, another group of enemies surrounded them. Three of the four of them were killed, Guo Yanbai, Guo Yandong, and Guo Yanping. Guo Yanjin did not die, and the wounded were covered by Guo Yanjin.

The third thing is that Guo Huaping is a local doctor in Zhuangjiayu. The troops retreated downwards, and it was difficult to provide first aid to the wounded. Guo Huaping first aided the wounded. Because he was rescuing the wounded, Guo Huaping was caught in the prison of the Japanese and puppet army commander Qing, and was detained and accused of having an affair. After Guo Huaping was arrested, his family used money to bail him out through connections. In addition, there were two wounded who were captured by the enemy at that time. These two wounded would rather die than surrender. The Japanese dug a hole in the Zhuangdong field (now a house), buried the two wounded alive, and then left. In order to rescue the two wounded people, the masses cried and dug with their hands, and dug out the two wounded people again. After they were dug out, the two wounded people were still a little bit angry. They did not know how to perform artificial respiration at that time, so they died without being revived. Who was digging up the earth with both hands to rescue the wounded? One was Zhang Xishan’s wife Zhang Dong (from Fangzhuang), and the other was Zhang Yongzhu’s wife Zhang Liu, two old ladies. After the battle in Guojiayu, more than 30 cadres and soldiers were sacrificed. The county party committee and government held a memorial meeting in Madong. Dong Bingzi, County Magistrate Zhang Chengqiu, and Political Commissar Hou Xiaozhang all spoke.

The troops invited all the people who helped rescue, transport, and rescue the wounded to the stage, and County Magistrate Zhang Chengqiu personally gave the blind man Zhang Xitai and those people a big white flower. The flames of war have long since dissipated, but the interdependent military-civilian relationship between the people and the praiseworthy heroic feats are still shocking and touching. The above story shows that under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, the government and the army are the backers of the people, and the people are the foundation for the survival of our military and government. We cannot be divorced from the masses of the people at any time.
