When presiding over the work of the Jizhong District Party Committee, Comrade Huang Jing attached great importance to strengthening the party's leadership and focused on the party building, political power building and mass organization building work in the Jizhong Anti-Japanese Base Area.
The local Communist Party organizations in central Hebei have a good foundation. However, with the rapid development of the Anti-Japanese War situation, the tasks are becoming increasingly arduous and onerous. In order to further exert the party's leadership role, the party's work urgently needs to be rectified and strengthened. Under the chairmanship of Secretary Huang Jing, the Jizhong District Party Committee first focused on the work of establishing and improving party organizations at all levels. At the same time, it actively and steadily developed party members in rural areas and the army, and established and improved grassroots party organizations. At the end of 1938, the number of CCP members in Anping County was 1,970, and five members of my family were among them. By August 1939, the number of party members in the region had reached more than 70,000. In January 1940, the party organization construction in Jizhong District had a complete organizational system from top to bottom. The five CCP regional committees and dozens of CCP county committees under its jurisdiction have been established, and almost every village has a party branch.
After the party organization became increasingly perfect, the party's leadership role continued to strengthen, and a large number of party members developed, in January 1940, under the chairmanship of Secretary Huang Jing, an enlarged meeting of the Party Committee of the Central Hebei District of the Communist Party of China was held. In accordance with the spirit of the Central Committee's instructions, the meeting emphasized the continued strengthening of the party's role in leading the anti-Japanese struggle, proposed work guidelines for consolidation in development, and made decisions to rectify the party organization and review party members. It will take half a year to first review and appraise the county committee and district committee members to ensure that these leading organs are in the hands of loyal and reliable cadres. Then we adopt batch training methods to rectify the party branch, each period is 12 days, carry forward democracy to carry out criticism and self-criticism, and examine the role of the branch as a fighting fortress and the political ideology and role model of party members. After the review of branch party members and cadres, the review was transferred to the review of general party members, and party members who did not meet the qualifications for party membership were cleared out of the party. A total of 2,738 people were cleared out in the district, which purified the party organization, improved the quality of party members, and further strengthened the level party organization’s combat effectiveness. At the same time, the district party committee established a party school, strengthened the leadership of intra-party education, and enabled party members to understand the correct relationship between Marxism-Leninism and Three People's Principles , the national united front and the class position, and improved the national consciousness and proletarian politics of party members. The Party organizations at all levels in Jizhong District have become more complete and stronger, and have become the strong leadership core of the people of Jizhong in fighting against the Japanese invaders.
While focusing on party building, the Jizhong District Party Committee also strengthened the party’s leadership in political power construction. Between April and May 1938, the Jizhong Administrative Office was formally established (referred to as the Jizhong Administrative Office), which was a unified political authority in central Hebei. Commander Lu Zhengcao concurrently served as the director of the Jizhong Administrative Office, and Comrade Li Gengtao served as the deputy director (later Comrade Xu Daben). In terms of political power construction, the county magistrates of each county are formally appointed by the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Border Region Government, and each county establishes a county administrative conference, which is the highest power and executive organ of the county. It was clearly announced that the main responsibilities and tasks of local government are: mobilizing the masses, organizing the masses, and arming the masses to participate in anti-Japanese activities; practicing democracy, establishing public opinion organs, extensively developing mass organizations, and implementing district and village universal suffrage; improving people's livelihood, abolishing exorbitant taxes, and promoting peace and harmony. Develop handicrafts, develop the rural economy, implement reasonable burdens, reduce rents and interest rates, and give preferential treatment to those who resist; mobilize financial and material resources to ensure adequate supply of military funds and supplies.
As secretary of the district party committee, Huang Jing attaches great importance to and cares about political power construction. He emphasized that the composition of government agencies strictly abides by the "three-threesystem"; the implementation of unified progressive taxes must be levied in accordance with tax laws; reasonable burdens must be reasonable and the scope of burdens must be broadened, and should account for 80% of the total population. Many years later, Xu Daben, who served as deputy director of the Central Hebei Administration Bureau, recalled that Comrade Huang Jing was a college student and he was very familiar with progressive tax rates and calculation methods.
On January 1, 1942, the "Work Guidelines and Tasks for 1942" document formulated by Huang Jing personally included "three hearts" requirements for agency cadres. When he spoke to the leading cadres of the Central Hebei Administrative Office, he said these "three hearts": 1. Be open-minded and solicit opinions from all sides; 2. Be patient, not afraid of trouble and not lose your temper; 3. Be enthusiastic, treat others with humility, pay attention to your attitude, and pay attention to your attitude. Revolutionary fraternity.
Under the leadership of the party, with the strengthening of political power construction, the organization of the People's Armed Anti-Japanese Self-Defense Forces has been further improved. From prefectures and counties to districts and villages, a complete people's armed system has been established, all from 18 to 55 All men aged 10 to 20 years old are welcome to participate. Later, the Women's Self-Defense Force was established, and the guns, grenades, and red-tasseled guns in the village were all used by the Self-Defense Force. They were responsible for standing sentries, reconnaissance and communications, stretcher transportation, cooperating with the main force in combat, disrupting traffic, maintaining village security, and other tasks. Various anti-war services.
Under the leadership of the Jizhong Administrative Director's Office, financial work, economic struggle against the enemy, cultural and educational work, water conservancy work, judicial work, plain militia work and other undertakings have been greatly developed and strengthened. On this basis, in June 1940, under the chairmanship of Secretary Huang Jing, the Party Committee of Jizhong District issued the "Decision on Strengthening the Party's Leadership over Political Power," requiring party committees at all levels to regularly study the specific guidelines and policies for political power work at the same level. and various legal systems, it is necessary to strictly distinguish the party members within the political power from the party branches of the political power agencies. The party’s decisions and instructions on the political power must be implemented by the CCP members in the political power organizations. The party’s leadership of the political power focuses on the line In terms of principles, principles, and policies, the daily work of political institutions is carried out by the political organizations themselves. This decision not only overcomes the phenomenon of irreconcilable separation between party and government, but also prevents the phenomenon of replacing government with party or replacing government with government, and ensures the smooth implementation of the work of government organs and their greater role.
Under the leadership of the party, various mass organizations in central Hebei, the Anti-Japanese War and National Salvation Federation of farmers, young people, and women, and the Anti-Japanese War and Nation-building Federation of workers, Muslims, and cultural circles have been improved from top to bottom, and organized and carried out extensively The work of mobilizing the masses, mobilizing the masses, and organizing the masses to participate in the war of resistance enabled the broad masses of the people to play an extremely important role in the severe struggle against the enemy. At that time, the song that sounded on the plains of central Hebei was, "Workers, peasants, soldiers, students, and businessmen, come together to save the nation." People, old and young, north and south, and aspiring Chinese people joined the tide of the Anti-Japanese War. In an area with a population of 8 million, there was a lively scene of "people come out, money comes out, money comes out, grain comes out, and guns come out." In order to fight the Japanese army, many effective measures and methods were created. Such as demolishing city walls, breaking roads, digging trenches, digging tunnels, laying landmines, hunting dogs, standing guard, sending intelligence, carrying stretchers, rescuing the sick and wounded, making military shoes, making military uniforms, transporting military rations, and even holding guns Taking a knife and directly participating in the war all rely on the participation and support of the broad masses of the people. When recalling the journey in Jizhong, political commissar Cheng Zihua once said affectionately that after the " May Day raids on ", the Jizhong base area still persisted in the struggle under extremely difficult circumstances until it successfully launched a counterattack against the Japanese invaders. It is impossible to have such a good mass foundation, and this is inseparable from the fact that Comrade Huang Jing led the masses to mobilize the masses to do a lot of work and lay a good foundation. During the vigorous mass movements, Huang Jing often reminded people to correctly grasp policies and prevent excessive deviations.
Faced with the cruel war environment, Secretary Huang Jing paid great attention to the good people, good deeds and typical events of the broad masses of people in Jizhong District fighting against the enemy, and instructed the news units to report and publicize them in a timely manner to educate and inspire the anti-Japanese war soldiers and civilians with real people and events. Such as the Yanling team active in Baiyangdian , the women digging tunnels in Jizhong, the small role models of Wuji County children checking the road, Wuqiang County the heroic boy who would rather die than surrender Wen Sanyu , and Yongjun Li Xingge, a model and later known as the "Mother of the Jizhong Soldiers", and others have introduced their heroic deeds in the "Jizhong Herald", which caused widespread influence among the masses.

Jizhong area is densely populated and rich in products. It borders Peking, Tianjin, Baoding to the north. The residents have a high level of education. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, under the leadership of the party, with the mobilization of the masses and the needs of the struggle , cultural and educational undertakings soon made new developments. Secretary Huang Jing attaches great importance to this objective reality. He cares and supports the development of cultural, educational and literary activities in central Hebei. At the beginning of each year, the work plan of the Jizhong District Party Committee has clear requirements and progress indicators for the development of cultural and educational undertakings in the district. By the summer of 1940, basically every administrative village in central Hebei had a junior primary school, and every district had a senior primary school. The number of enrolled children accounted for more than 80% of school-age children, and adult literacy education had also made great progress. Based on actual conditions, various places have generally established relatively complete "private school" systems in different forms and methods (Note: so-called private schools refer to various ways such as using winter leisure in rural areas or using original primary school equipment to run "night schools"). Great achievements have been made in the training of teachers and the compilation and printing of textbooks. In the basic areas of the base area, most of the young people's illiteracy has been eliminated. The Eighth Special Administrative Region and the Tenth Special Administrative Region have opened , eighth, and tenth middle schools where conditions permit. The Seventh Special Administrative Region and the Ninth Special Administrative Region have jointly established the No. 79 Joint Middle School, which has improved the level of education. .
With the development of popular cultural education, it not only improves people's quality, but also promotes rural cultural life. Many villages set up rescue rooms, posted posters, and wrote slogans; they set up song and dance teams and formed village theater troupes. The rural atmosphere was very active, and anti-Japanese and national salvation songs were heard everywhere, inspiring the masses to join the struggle against the enemy.
In order to guide the work of the entire district, the district party committee published the "Jizhong Herald", which is distributed throughout the district. At the same time, the Xinhua News Agency's Jizhong Branch was established to promptly spread the enthusiasm and sacrificial spirit of the anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians in Jizhong. In addition, local and county party committees have also published their own newspapers, and some have published irregular periodicals. During the anti-Japanese war, Secretary Huang Jing supported the cultural and educational system in launching the writing activity of "One Day in Central Hebei" throughout the region.
In order to meet the needs of the masses’ cultural life and strengthen the propaganda of the Anti-Japanese War, the Party Committee of Jizhong District established the directly affiliated New Century Drama Club with the support of Secretary Huang Jing. The Political Department of the Jizhong Military Region established the Fireline Drama Club earlier, and each military division also They all established their own drama clubs, and each county also established drama clubs one after another. Later, it developed to the point where large villages had village theater troupes. The number of village theater troupes in Jizhong reached more than 1,700, and mass activities were carried out to produce and perform anti-Japanese dramas. . The magnificent scene of "theater troupes in every village and singing everywhere" suddenly appeared on the plains of central Hebei, inspiring the anti-Japanese enthusiasm of the broad masses of the people. In the spring of 1940, after the New Century Drama Club returned from studying at the North China Associated University, Huang Jing listened to the report of President Liang Bin and gave important instructions for the future work of the Drama Club. He requested: "In addition to acting and singing, the New Century Drama Club will In addition, you have to work like an old hen, laying eggs and hatching chicks, laying many eggs, hatching many chicks, and activating the literary and artistic work in Jizhong."
The New Century Drama Club followed the instructions of Secretary Huang Jing. Two literary and art training classes were opened successively, and more than 400 local literary and artistic backbones were trained in basic knowledge of drama and music; in 1941, the drama club sent personnel to the first, third and fourth districts to provide guidance to village theater troupes and Open literary and artistic training classes to promote the development of local literary and artistic activities. When
Firewire Drama Club was studying at the United Nations University, it was a time when theater troupes in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei region were popular about performing big plays, and they also wanted to rehearse a big play. After returning to Hebei Province, they planned to rehearse Cao Yu's "Sunrise ". Secretary Huang Jing, Commander Lu Zhengcao, and Political Commissar Cheng Zihua all supported their move, but they were unable to find the script for "Sunrise." When Secretary Huang Jing found out, he said, "This is easy to do!" He found it from Peiping through underground connections. The script solves this problem. Since the third anniversary meeting of the establishment of the Third Column of the Eighth Route Army (Jizhong Military Region) on May 4, 1941, the drama "Sunrise" has been performed continuously for many times. Although this large-scale play was performed in a war-torn battlefield and was not suitable for the requirements of the war environment behind enemy lines at that time, this artistic practice played an important role in improving the artistic level of the drama club.

Secretary Huang Jing has always been concerned about the formulation and implementation of the party's policies, paying special attention to creatively expressing the spirit of various policies formulated by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the Northern Bureau and the Northern Branch of the Communist Party of China in conjunction with the situation in central Hebei, which has won the hearts of the masses. support. For example, various policies related to the united front, ethnic policy, anti-hegemony struggle, three-thirds regime, rent reduction and interest reduction, taxation, anti-friction struggle, etc., especially in the situation where the struggle between the enemy and ourselves in the central Hebei Plain has become extremely fierce and dominated by armed struggle. In some areas and at some times, a two-sided policy of the revolution was implemented. Through legal struggles, covert struggles and armed struggles were used to reduce the enemy's cruel persecution of our soldiers and civilians, protect the interests of the people, protect the anti-Japanese army and party and government staff, and save money. and developed anti-Japanese forces, upheld and expanded united front work, and played a major role in upholding the anti-Japanese guerrilla war in the central Hebei Plain.
After the fall of Wuhan, the enemy returned to the rear and began a period of occupation that expanded from point-line occupation to surface occupation. The enemy relied on point lines to carry out "clearance", "combing" and "picking" to hunt down the cadres of the Eighth Route Army and the Communist Party, and expanded it to all villages, established maintenance committees, established a puppet regime and Baojia system , and established a liaison team Intelligence network. At the beginning, our policy was to educate the people and cadres not to work for the enemy and to maintain national integrity. The enemy relied on their military superiority and believed that this was a "bandit village", so they came to burn, kill, and loot every day. Some of the houses in the village were demolished by the enemy, and the people ran to other villages without sending liaison personnel. As a result, The masses have suffered great losses, and it is difficult for us to carry out our work. At the same time, in order to reduce losses, cadres in some villages responded to the enemy on the surface, but in fact continued to persist in the anti-Japanese work. As a result, three forms of political power emerged: one was the puppet regime organized by capitulationists and traitors to surrender to Japan; the other was the puppet regime chosen by the enemy and composed of some local ruffians and local tyrants and evil gentry. Although they were not necessarily loyal to the enemy, they were They do not support us, but engage in corruption and exploit the masses; the other is that our party members and cadres are recommended by the masses and serve as liaison officers and pseudo-village chiefs, becoming a two-faced anti-Japanese regime. They deal with the enemy on the surface, but are actually loyal to the anti-Japanese government. Faced with this complicated struggle situation, Secretary Huang Jing went deep into the grassroots level to conduct investigation and research. In the autumn of 1940, he discovered a model village for fighting against the enemy—Xiputuan Village in Shenbei County. Since the establishment of the stronghold, the puppet political power and the pseudo-self-defense forces have been organized and planned, and they have launched a resourceful and courageous struggle with the enemy, confusing the enemy. The party branch sent people to mobilize the masses to break the road in the enemy's stronghold village and implement the Various anti-Japanese policies consolidated the anti-Japanese regime and anti-Japanese mass organizations, combined illegal struggles with legal struggles, attacked the enemy, and strengthened ourselves. In the winter of 1940, Comrade Huang Jing personally went to Yulin Village in Anping County to convene a reporting meeting and called Meng Linhe, the party secretary of Xiputun Village, to report on the situation of their village's struggle against the enemy. Secretary Huang Jing praised them, gave important instructions, and reported to the Northern Bureau of the Communist Party of China. However, there was no consensus on this issue at the Jizhong District Party Committee meeting. Some people opposed the adoption of a revolutionary two-sided policy, believing it to be a "right deviation."
In fact, Chairman Mao published an article "On Policy" in December 1940, stating: "There are also two-faced elements among the traitors and pro-Japanese faction, and we should treat them with a revolutionary two-faced policy." When attacking with the high-pressure policy of aggression against China, only by implementing the above strategic principles can we persist in resisting Japan." However, this conclusion was not deeply understood by some comrades in time. In order to study this issue, Secretary Huang Jing of the Jizhong District Party Committee took Comrade Li Chunlan, secretary-general of the district party committee, to the guerrilla zones near Dingxian and Anguo counties to conduct investigations and research. They held symposiums with grassroots cadres and made it clear that "guerrilla zones can become our The base areas are only more guerrilla. The two-faced regime in the guerrilla areas must be divided and disintegrated into a revolutionary two-faced regime.”

In June 1941, the Jizhong District Party Committee held an organizational work meeting. The meeting formally affirmed the issue of implementing a two-sided policy of revolution in enemy-occupied areas and areas near enemy areas. In his report, Secretary Huang Jing specifically talked about "Work Issues in Enemy-Occupied Areas and Backward Areas". He made a detailed analysis of the work in enemy and puppet strongholds, the work in enemy-occupied areas, and the work in areas close to the enemy, and put forward some suggestions on the work in enemy-occupied areas and backward areas. These areas can implement a two-sided policy of revolution. We must express the illegal content in a legal form to deal with the enemy. Party organizations in various places conscientiously implemented the instructions of the district party committee and selected the most reliable Communist Party members in the villages to serve as "pseudo village chiefs"
to deal with the Japanese and puppet troops and detect the enemy's movements. After that, there were many incidents where the puppet village chief handed over grain to the Japanese and puppet troops and immediately reported it to the local guerrillas, who set up ambushes along the way and intercepted the grain.

Because the Jizhong area is surrounded and infiltrated by enemies and is also a plain, battles are extremely frequent and cruel. As the top leader of the district party committee, Secretary Huang Jing must first consider the struggle against the enemy in all his work, so he pays great attention to military issues. In all major operations involving the struggle against the enemy, such as countering "siege", countering "mopping up", countering "cannibalization", etc., in addition to directly arranging the struggle against the enemy in the party and government system, he participated in discussing plans and formulating measures for relevant military operations. and participate in organizational command. When the tunnel struggle started in central Hebei, there were different understandings from top to bottom at the beginning. Political Commissar Cheng Zihua personally went to the area of Li County to investigate and study, and held a district party committee meeting under the chairmanship of Comrade Huang Jing, which affirmed the role of tunnels and unified their thinking. , issued instructions in the name of the district party committee, and the tunnel struggle began with great vigor.
In late March 1940, Military Region Commander Lu Zhengcao was ordered to lead the Jizhong Garrison Brigade to the Taihang area to participate in the pursuit of the Kuomintang Zhu Huaibing's stubborn troops. Political Commissar Cheng Zihua led the southward detachment from Jizhong to the southern Hebei, Hebei, Shandong and Henan areas to participate. Counterattack the three troops of the stubborn friends. At this time, the only leaders of the Jizhong Military Region were Chief of Staff Sun Yi and Director of the Political Department Sun Zhiyuan. Regarding major military operations, Sun Yi and Sun Zhiyuan went to the district party committee secretary Huang Jing to make decisions. At this time, the enemy took advantage of the main force of the Jizhong troops going out to fight and mobilized a total of 37,000 people from the 110th Division, the 27th Division, and the 8th Independent Mixed Brigade. The troops were divided into more than a dozen groups and aggressively besieged the Jizhong Anti-Japanese Base Area. At this time, there were more than 10,000 people in the units directly under the Jizhong Military Region, the Jizhong District Party Committee Headquarters, and mass organizations, stationed in the Song Village area of South and North in Suning County, with huge goals.
In this severe anti-"mopping up" situation, Chief of Staff Sun Yi based on flexible strategies and tactics, proposed a plan to let the leading organs "go" as the best strategy. He went to Huang Jing and Sun Zhiyuan for urgent consultation. He said that our target was too big and we lacked combat effectiveness. The best way was to divide them up. Secretary Huang Jing would lead one battalion, Comrade Sun Zhiyuan would lead three companies, and I would lead two companies. Company, each choose a direction to stick out.
After hearing the case of Chief of Staff Sun Yi, Secretary Huang Jing said very calmly: "This method of yours cannot work. The three of us are acting together and cannot be separated!" Director Sun Zhiyuan agreed with Secretary Huang Jing's view, but was unsure about the direction of action. idea. At dusk the next day, the enemy was already approaching me, so I decided to go eastward, crossing the Ziya River north of Xian County from Liubo Bridge and heading east, heading straight to the Hejian, Dacheng, and Qingxian areas. .
After the action plan was determined, Chief of Staff Sun Yi sent a telegram to the Eighth Army Division located on the west bank of the Ziya River, stating that the military region agencies and directly affiliated teams had moved eastward and had begun action. The Eighth Army Division sent a reply saying that the enemy situation on their side was even more tense. An enemy battalion was guarding the Liubo Bridge, and the military region's leading organizations could not move eastward under any circumstances.Sun Yi immediately explained the above situation to Huang Jing. Secretary Huang Jing said categorically, "The troops will stop advancing immediately and rest where they are!" Then he said, "The commander and political commissar are not here, so your chief of staff is the chief officer!"
At this moment, taking advantage of the moonlight and the light of the flashlight, Huang Jing, Sun Yi, and Sun Zhiyuan were discussing urgently under the thatched shed on the roadside, studying countermeasures. Sun Yi said decisively: "The troops' advance is blocked, if it doesn't work... Go back the way you came and move west!" Huang Jing and Sun Zhiyuan nodded in agreement. The troops immediately turned around and headed westward, passing between five enemy strongholds in the Wurenqiao area of Anguo County in broad daylight. Our large group of troops advanced in three directions. The soldiers of the guard force were all armed with guns and ready for ammunition. They were so powerful that the enemy did not dare to act rashly. The Japanese and puppet troops huddled on the turrets. Only after our rearguard troops passed by did they hear a burst of gunfire fired into the sky. After that, our troops safely passed through the Pinghan Road blockade and moved to the area of Kouhou Town, Xingtang County. As Huang Jing's confidential correspondent, I provide the leader with a one-fifty-thousandth military map at any time and follow closely behind him.
After this thrilling transfer, some people once doubted whether it was appropriate for the leadership to leave Jizhong in an emergency. Comrade Huang Jing reported to Peng Zhen, Secretary of the Northern Branch of the Communist Party of China. Peng Zhen said: "This action is right. Your team of ten thousand people may not be beaten to pieces by the enemy and suffer serious losses. Leading the team close to the mountainous area to avoid the enemy's edge is in line with Mao Zedong's strategic and tactical thinking." Afterwards, Huang Jing told Sun Yi, and they were both happy to be recognized by Peng Zhen.
The Jizhong Anti-Japanese Base Area is an important strategic area behind enemy lines in North China. It poses a great threat to the enemy. The Japanese invading army has long been eyeing the soldiers and civilians in Jizhong and adopted various measures in an attempt to occupy and control Jizhong, but failed. Succeed. In December 1941, the Japanese fascists launched the Pacific War, stepped up their efforts to extract resources from China, consolidated their occupied areas, and planned an unprecedented large-scale "sweep" in central Hebei in an attempt to fully control the central region. As the situation develops, the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Branch of the Communist Party of China and the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region have repeatedly given instructions to combine the anti-"cannibalization" struggle and make serious preparations to meet the enemy's spring "mopping up". The Party Committee of the Central Hebei District of the Communist Party of China and the Central Hebei Military Region have repeatedly issued instructions to prepare for the enemy's "mopping up". The "Jizhong Herald" also published an anti-"mopping up" editorial, calling on the military and civilians in the region to immediately eliminate the concept of peace and mobilize urgently. Meet the enemy's comprehensive "sweep"
.
"Working Policies and Tasks for 1942" was formulated and issued by Secretary Huang Jing of the Jizhong District Party Committee personally. This is the cover of Zhao Yongtian’s preserved mimeograph manuscript. (China Red Network Red Gallery)
In April 1942, under the chairmanship of Secretary Huang Jing, the district party committee and the military region issued emergency instructions against "mopping up", reanalyzing the situation and clearly stating: "After the outbreak of the Pacific War, the enemy The view that it is no longer possible to carry out a large-scale long-term 'mopping up' must be eliminated immediately and further active preparations be made ideologically and materially." On April 24, Secretary Huang Jing, Commander Lu Zhengcao, Chief of Staff Sha Ke, Acting Director of Zhuoxiong , etc. (At that time political commissar Cheng Zihua had other tasks in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region) agreed on the policy of countering "mopping up" and decided to The number of personnel in the leading organs of the party and government has been greatly reduced, from more than 4,000 to more than 1,000. The reduced personnel groups were dispersed to various regions, troops and subordinate units to work with the troops and the masses to resist "mopping up", and the weak and sick cadres were dispersed to strengthen the wall. The main forces must break through the enemy's encirclement, move from the inner line to the outer line, adopt "the enemy advances and we retreat", avoid the real situation and attack the weak, seize the opportunity to attack the enemy. The regional teams and county and district guerrillas in each subdivision dispersed and concealed activities in the original area, circling with the enemy, looking for opportunities to harass and attack the enemy.
The enemy made careful arrangements for this "mopping up", "to launch a surprise attack and encirclement operation against the main force of the Communist army in the central Hebei region, destroy their base areas, and at the same time take various political, economic, and ideological measures to Turn the area into a law and order area in one fell swoop.”
The life-and-death "May Day" anti-"mopping up" campaign in the Jizhong Anti-Japanese Base Area has begun. On May 1st, the Jizhong District Party Committee and the Jizhong Federation of Trade Unions held a meeting of directly affiliated cadres in Xu Zhangbao Village, Raoyang County to commemorate the May 1st International Labor Day and mobilize the people of the region to prepare for the counter-mopping up. Secretary Huang Jing and Commander Lu Zhengcao attended the conference and delivered speeches. Everyone is asked to take immediate action and join the fight against "mopping up".
From May 1st to 10th, it was the enemy's "mopping up" stage to lure our troops into the periphery of their encirclement. They compressed inward from all four sides to form a triangle between the Hutuo River, Fuyang River, and Shide Railway. A tightly sealed so-called "iron ring formation" made careful preparations for the sudden "iron wall encirclement" in the second stage. It plans to concentrate its forces to implement an "iron wall encirclement" from the 11th to the 15th, in an attempt to annihilate the party and government leadership organs and the main forces of our Jizhong District.
On May 1, 1942, Secretary Huang Jing took a group photo of five people in Zhangbao Village, Raoyang County.

The Party Committee of the Central Hebei District of the Communist Party of China, the Administrative Office of the Central Hebei Province, and the Leading Organization of the Central Hebei Military Region, led by Commander Lu Zhengcao and Secretary Huang Jing, left the Xu Zhangbao Village area of Raoyang County on May 2 and jumped to Cangshi Road South, on May 8, before the enemy blocked the Fuyang River, he crossed the Fuyang River eastward, jumped outside the enemy's "iron wall encirclement" circle, and entered the Ren (Qiu) River (Jian) Dacheng (city) east of the Ziya River. ) area and dealt with the enemy for more than 20 days. During this period, we crossed the Ziya River four times, crossed the Jinpu Railway five times, and crossed the blockade 18 times. With the support and cover of the people, the enemy could not even find our shadow. During the first and second stages when the enemy concentrated its forces to carry out large-scale "mopping up", we did not suffer any major losses. Major General Saburo Nakamura, chief of staff of the enemy's 110th Division, had to lament: "A crusade like a gust of wind cannot capture the enemy."
At this time, the leaders of the military region analyzed the entire anti-"mopping up" situation and saw that the enemy was very determined to "mopping up". They could not treat it according to past anti-"mopping up" practices and must make longer-term plans. Later, Secretary Huang Jing and Commander Lu Zhengcao received a telegram from Deputy Commander-in-Chief Peng Dehuai from the Eighth Route Army headquarters. Agree with Huang and Lu's analysis of the situation in the central Hebei region, and agree with the transfer of the leading organs in central Hebei to the Hebei, Shandong and Henan regions through the southern Hebei region. On the evening of June 11, the leading organs of Jizhong District, including the party, government, military, and civilian departments and groups, braved Category 5 winds and passed through four blockades. At dawn the next day, they entered Wei County, Hebei Province. village. Zhangshi Village is located 25 kilometers northeast of Wei County. It is a guerrilla area in the southern Hebei Anti-Japanese Base Area. There are 8 enemy strongholds within 5 kilometers of the surrounding area. Our army was discovered by the enemy soon after entering the village, but the surrounding enemy strongholds were not large in strength. 500 people, the enemy in Wei County and Nangong is only 1,000 people. If a battle breaks out, they can hold out until dusk. Huang Jing, Lu Zhengcao, Sha Ke, and Zhang Xuesi lived in the north and east rooms of a compound. After urgent discussions, they decided to hide their forces and stick to the village until night to break out and move. When the leaders were discussing matters, Secretary-General Li Chunlan and I were standing by.
The battle started, and more than 30 Japanese and puppet troops came swaggering from the northwest of the village to urge the civilians. Lu Zhengcao said to Huang Jing, in order to face a more severe situation, we must calmly respond to the battle, fight at close quarters, fight in small quantities, and use mushroom tactics. Fight back with rifles and grenades, not light and heavy machine guns and mortars. Huang Jing, who was sitting in the war room, said to Lu Zhengcao: "That's absolutely correct, I agree!"
After the exchange of fire with the enemy, the enemy gradually increased its troops, increasing to 1,000 at noon. The Japanese army used poison gas. Fortunately, the gust of wind reduced the power. We all Wearing a respirator mask. In the afternoon, the number of enemy troops increased by 1,500, and many attacks were repelled by our army. After dark, I fired mortars, light and heavy machine guns, and rifles to counterattack. The enemy was stunned and stunned, and the enemy's artillery fire was silenced. The enemy with serious casualties retreated. At nine o'clock in the night, our army Victory breakout in two ways. In this battle, more than 300 enemy people were killed and wounded, and we suffered more than 90 casualties.After this battle, the Central Military Commission of the Communist Party of China issued a commendation, hailing it as "an example of plain guerrilla warfare and rural defensive warfare", which was recorded in the military history of the Eighth Route Army.
After Zhang Shi broke through, the leadership of the Central Hebei District went south to the Hebei, Shandong, and Henan Military Region. After a short period of rest and replenishment, it began to move westward in late August, crossed the Wei River, crossed the enemy-occupied Ping-Han Railway, and entered the Taihang Mountains. Under the influence of the local A warm welcome from the military and civilians. September 18 was the 11th anniversary of the September 18th Incident. The 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army held a meeting outside Xiguan, Shexian County, where it was stationed, to welcome the Jizhong troops arriving in the Taihang Mountains. Members of the 2nd Company of our district party committee sat in the back right corner of the venue. The conference first held a military parade. The 129th Division, the Guard Brigade and the 27th Regiment of the Central Hebei Army were reviewed. After reviewing the troops, Deputy Commander-in-Chief Peng Dehuai delivered an important speech. After the conference, Secretary Huang Jing and Commander Lu Zhengcao made a special trip to the Northern Bureau of the Communist Party of China and the Eighth Route Army's forward headquarters to report on the situation of the military and civilian struggles against the enemy in the Jizhong Anti-Japanese Base Area in the past few years. The heroic scenes are described in detail. Soon, the Jizhong troops, led by Commander Lu Zhengcao, returned to the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region and approached Jizhong to continue directing the anti-"mopping up" struggle in Jizhong.
In September 1942, Huang Jing was ordered to be transferred to the Party Committee of the Hebei, Shandong and Yu District of the Communist Party of China, and he said goodbye to the land of Jizhong Plain and the people there that he loved and was familiar with.
In October 1948, I met Huang Jing once in Shijiazhuang, an important town in Hebei Province. At the beginning of the Pingjin Campaign, the central government appointed Huang Kecheng as secretary of the Tianjin Municipal Committee and director of the Military Control Commission; Huang Jing was appointed mayor of Tianjin, formed a takeover command, and stationed in Shengfang Town near Tianjin. Huang Jing established the policy of "according to each system, top-down, leaving intact, taking over first and managing later" for taking over big cities. The main takeover agencies are divided into three major departments: finance, culture and education, and municipal administration, with 13 subordinate takeover offices, and preparations have been made.
After the founding of New China, I listened to his teachings many times in Beijing. When I heard that Comrade Huang Jing passed away from illness, I wrote a poem to express my condolences and commemoration.
The martyrs will remain famous in history forever.
led eight million soldiers and civilians, and the banners rolled across Hebei.
Cannons roared in the plains, and horses set off with swords and swords.
Stained with bullets and blood, they vowed to rejuvenate the nation.
Fire is spreading all over Hebei, and flowers are blooming in Shandong.
shouldered the important task of founding the country and will remain famous in history.
stood in awe before his soul, feeling deep affection for his master and friend.
Jiuquan’s loyal bones and spirit are still there, and I enjoy watching the spread of Peng’s wings.
It has been more than half a century since Secretary Huang Jing left us, but the memories and images of his work and fighting in Jizhong during the Anti-Japanese War have left me unforgettable for a long time.
During his work in Jizhong, Secretary Huang Jing showed that he was an open-minded, noble-minded, knowledgeable, quick-thinking and talented leader; he was a leader who had no official atmosphere, no airs, talked and laughed happily, and was approachable; He is a leader who is deeply rooted in reality, connected with the masses, attaches great importance to investigation and research, is down-to-earth, rigorous and pragmatic. Comrade Huang Jing's excellent thoughts, style, qualities and talents will remain in the hearts of Jizhong forever and will never be forgotten.
On February 10, 1958, after the death of Comrade Huang Jing, Bo Yibo delivered a eulogy on behalf of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and made the following evaluation of Huang Jing: "Comrade Huang Jing is an outstanding member of our party. He is loyal to the Chinese working class and the Chinese people. A revolutionary fighter. Under the leadership of the party, Comrade Huang Jing made important contributions to the revolutionary cause of the working class in a complex and difficult environment. "This evaluation of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China is a summary of Huang Jing's life. Undoubtedly, it also includes his experience fighting in Hebei Province during the Anti-Japanese War.
Comrade Huang Jing will always be an example for us to learn from.

On January 1, 1942, the "Work Guidelines and Tasks for 1942" document formulated by Huang Jing personally included "three hearts" requirements for agency cadres. When he spoke to the leading cadres of the Central Hebei Administrative Office, he said these "three hearts": 1. Be open-minded and solicit opinions from all sides; 2. Be patient, not afraid of trouble and not lose your temper; 3. Be enthusiastic, treat others with humility, pay attention to your attitude, and pay attention to your attitude. Revolutionary fraternity.
Under the leadership of the party, with the strengthening of political power construction, the organization of the People's Armed Anti-Japanese Self-Defense Forces has been further improved. From prefectures and counties to districts and villages, a complete people's armed system has been established, all from 18 to 55 All men aged 10 to 20 years old are welcome to participate. Later, the Women's Self-Defense Force was established, and the guns, grenades, and red-tasseled guns in the village were all used by the Self-Defense Force. They were responsible for standing sentries, reconnaissance and communications, stretcher transportation, cooperating with the main force in combat, disrupting traffic, maintaining village security, and other tasks. Various anti-war services.
Under the leadership of the Jizhong Administrative Director's Office, financial work, economic struggle against the enemy, cultural and educational work, water conservancy work, judicial work, plain militia work and other undertakings have been greatly developed and strengthened. On this basis, in June 1940, under the chairmanship of Secretary Huang Jing, the Party Committee of Jizhong District issued the "Decision on Strengthening the Party's Leadership over Political Power," requiring party committees at all levels to regularly study the specific guidelines and policies for political power work at the same level. and various legal systems, it is necessary to strictly distinguish the party members within the political power from the party branches of the political power agencies. The party’s decisions and instructions on the political power must be implemented by the CCP members in the political power organizations. The party’s leadership of the political power focuses on the line In terms of principles, principles, and policies, the daily work of political institutions is carried out by the political organizations themselves. This decision not only overcomes the phenomenon of irreconcilable separation between party and government, but also prevents the phenomenon of replacing government with party or replacing government with government, and ensures the smooth implementation of the work of government organs and their greater role.
Under the leadership of the party, various mass organizations in central Hebei, the Anti-Japanese War and National Salvation Federation of farmers, young people, and women, and the Anti-Japanese War and Nation-building Federation of workers, Muslims, and cultural circles have been improved from top to bottom, and organized and carried out extensively The work of mobilizing the masses, mobilizing the masses, and organizing the masses to participate in the war of resistance enabled the broad masses of the people to play an extremely important role in the severe struggle against the enemy. At that time, the song that sounded on the plains of central Hebei was, "Workers, peasants, soldiers, students, and businessmen, come together to save the nation." People, old and young, north and south, and aspiring Chinese people joined the tide of the Anti-Japanese War. In an area with a population of 8 million, there was a lively scene of "people come out, money comes out, money comes out, grain comes out, and guns come out." In order to fight the Japanese army, many effective measures and methods were created. Such as demolishing city walls, breaking roads, digging trenches, digging tunnels, laying landmines, hunting dogs, standing guard, sending intelligence, carrying stretchers, rescuing the sick and wounded, making military shoes, making military uniforms, transporting military rations, and even holding guns Taking a knife and directly participating in the war all rely on the participation and support of the broad masses of the people. When recalling the journey in Jizhong, political commissar Cheng Zihua once said affectionately that after the " May Day raids on ", the Jizhong base area still persisted in the struggle under extremely difficult circumstances until it successfully launched a counterattack against the Japanese invaders. It is impossible to have such a good mass foundation, and this is inseparable from the fact that Comrade Huang Jing led the masses to mobilize the masses to do a lot of work and lay a good foundation. During the vigorous mass movements, Huang Jing often reminded people to correctly grasp policies and prevent excessive deviations.
Faced with the cruel war environment, Secretary Huang Jing paid great attention to the good people, good deeds and typical events of the broad masses of people in Jizhong District fighting against the enemy, and instructed the news units to report and publicize them in a timely manner to educate and inspire the anti-Japanese war soldiers and civilians with real people and events. Such as the Yanling team active in Baiyangdian , the women digging tunnels in Jizhong, the small role models of Wuji County children checking the road, Wuqiang County the heroic boy who would rather die than surrender Wen Sanyu , and Yongjun Li Xingge, a model and later known as the "Mother of the Jizhong Soldiers", and others have introduced their heroic deeds in the "Jizhong Herald", which caused widespread influence among the masses.

Jizhong area is densely populated and rich in products. It borders Peking, Tianjin, Baoding to the north. The residents have a high level of education. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, under the leadership of the party, with the mobilization of the masses and the needs of the struggle , cultural and educational undertakings soon made new developments. Secretary Huang Jing attaches great importance to this objective reality. He cares and supports the development of cultural, educational and literary activities in central Hebei. At the beginning of each year, the work plan of the Jizhong District Party Committee has clear requirements and progress indicators for the development of cultural and educational undertakings in the district. By the summer of 1940, basically every administrative village in central Hebei had a junior primary school, and every district had a senior primary school. The number of enrolled children accounted for more than 80% of school-age children, and adult literacy education had also made great progress. Based on actual conditions, various places have generally established relatively complete "private school" systems in different forms and methods (Note: so-called private schools refer to various ways such as using winter leisure in rural areas or using original primary school equipment to run "night schools"). Great achievements have been made in the training of teachers and the compilation and printing of textbooks. In the basic areas of the base area, most of the young people's illiteracy has been eliminated. The Eighth Special Administrative Region and the Tenth Special Administrative Region have opened , eighth, and tenth middle schools where conditions permit. The Seventh Special Administrative Region and the Ninth Special Administrative Region have jointly established the No. 79 Joint Middle School, which has improved the level of education. .
With the development of popular cultural education, it not only improves people's quality, but also promotes rural cultural life. Many villages set up rescue rooms, posted posters, and wrote slogans; they set up song and dance teams and formed village theater troupes. The rural atmosphere was very active, and anti-Japanese and national salvation songs were heard everywhere, inspiring the masses to join the struggle against the enemy.
In order to guide the work of the entire district, the district party committee published the "Jizhong Herald", which is distributed throughout the district. At the same time, the Xinhua News Agency's Jizhong Branch was established to promptly spread the enthusiasm and sacrificial spirit of the anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians in Jizhong. In addition, local and county party committees have also published their own newspapers, and some have published irregular periodicals. During the anti-Japanese war, Secretary Huang Jing supported the cultural and educational system in launching the writing activity of "One Day in Central Hebei" throughout the region.
In order to meet the needs of the masses’ cultural life and strengthen the propaganda of the Anti-Japanese War, the Party Committee of Jizhong District established the directly affiliated New Century Drama Club with the support of Secretary Huang Jing. The Political Department of the Jizhong Military Region established the Fireline Drama Club earlier, and each military division also They all established their own drama clubs, and each county also established drama clubs one after another. Later, it developed to the point where large villages had village theater troupes. The number of village theater troupes in Jizhong reached more than 1,700, and mass activities were carried out to produce and perform anti-Japanese dramas. . The magnificent scene of "theater troupes in every village and singing everywhere" suddenly appeared on the plains of central Hebei, inspiring the anti-Japanese enthusiasm of the broad masses of the people. In the spring of 1940, after the New Century Drama Club returned from studying at the North China Associated University, Huang Jing listened to the report of President Liang Bin and gave important instructions for the future work of the Drama Club. He requested: "In addition to acting and singing, the New Century Drama Club will In addition, you have to work like an old hen, laying eggs and hatching chicks, laying many eggs, hatching many chicks, and activating the literary and artistic work in Jizhong."
The New Century Drama Club followed the instructions of Secretary Huang Jing. Two literary and art training classes were opened successively, and more than 400 local literary and artistic backbones were trained in basic knowledge of drama and music; in 1941, the drama club sent personnel to the first, third and fourth districts to provide guidance to village theater troupes and Open literary and artistic training classes to promote the development of local literary and artistic activities. When
Firewire Drama Club was studying at the United Nations University, it was a time when theater troupes in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei region were popular about performing big plays, and they also wanted to rehearse a big play. After returning to Hebei Province, they planned to rehearse Cao Yu's "Sunrise ". Secretary Huang Jing, Commander Lu Zhengcao, and Political Commissar Cheng Zihua all supported their move, but they were unable to find the script for "Sunrise." When Secretary Huang Jing found out, he said, "This is easy to do!" He found it from Peiping through underground connections. The script solves this problem. Since the third anniversary meeting of the establishment of the Third Column of the Eighth Route Army (Jizhong Military Region) on May 4, 1941, the drama "Sunrise" has been performed continuously for many times. Although this large-scale play was performed in a war-torn battlefield and was not suitable for the requirements of the war environment behind enemy lines at that time, this artistic practice played an important role in improving the artistic level of the drama club.

Secretary Huang Jing has always been concerned about the formulation and implementation of the party's policies, paying special attention to creatively expressing the spirit of various policies formulated by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the Northern Bureau and the Northern Branch of the Communist Party of China in conjunction with the situation in central Hebei, which has won the hearts of the masses. support. For example, various policies related to the united front, ethnic policy, anti-hegemony struggle, three-thirds regime, rent reduction and interest reduction, taxation, anti-friction struggle, etc., especially in the situation where the struggle between the enemy and ourselves in the central Hebei Plain has become extremely fierce and dominated by armed struggle. In some areas and at some times, a two-sided policy of the revolution was implemented. Through legal struggles, covert struggles and armed struggles were used to reduce the enemy's cruel persecution of our soldiers and civilians, protect the interests of the people, protect the anti-Japanese army and party and government staff, and save money. and developed anti-Japanese forces, upheld and expanded united front work, and played a major role in upholding the anti-Japanese guerrilla war in the central Hebei Plain.
After the fall of Wuhan, the enemy returned to the rear and began a period of occupation that expanded from point-line occupation to surface occupation. The enemy relied on point lines to carry out "clearance", "combing" and "picking" to hunt down the cadres of the Eighth Route Army and the Communist Party, and expanded it to all villages, established maintenance committees, established a puppet regime and Baojia system , and established a liaison team Intelligence network. At the beginning, our policy was to educate the people and cadres not to work for the enemy and to maintain national integrity. The enemy relied on their military superiority and believed that this was a "bandit village", so they came to burn, kill, and loot every day. Some of the houses in the village were demolished by the enemy, and the people ran to other villages without sending liaison personnel. As a result, The masses have suffered great losses, and it is difficult for us to carry out our work. At the same time, in order to reduce losses, cadres in some villages responded to the enemy on the surface, but in fact continued to persist in the anti-Japanese work. As a result, three forms of political power emerged: one was the puppet regime organized by capitulationists and traitors to surrender to Japan; the other was the puppet regime chosen by the enemy and composed of some local ruffians and local tyrants and evil gentry. Although they were not necessarily loyal to the enemy, they were They do not support us, but engage in corruption and exploit the masses; the other is that our party members and cadres are recommended by the masses and serve as liaison officers and pseudo-village chiefs, becoming a two-faced anti-Japanese regime. They deal with the enemy on the surface, but are actually loyal to the anti-Japanese government. Faced with this complicated struggle situation, Secretary Huang Jing went deep into the grassroots level to conduct investigation and research. In the autumn of 1940, he discovered a model village for fighting against the enemy—Xiputuan Village in Shenbei County. Since the establishment of the stronghold, the puppet political power and the pseudo-self-defense forces have been organized and planned, and they have launched a resourceful and courageous struggle with the enemy, confusing the enemy. The party branch sent people to mobilize the masses to break the road in the enemy's stronghold village and implement the Various anti-Japanese policies consolidated the anti-Japanese regime and anti-Japanese mass organizations, combined illegal struggles with legal struggles, attacked the enemy, and strengthened ourselves. In the winter of 1940, Comrade Huang Jing personally went to Yulin Village in Anping County to convene a reporting meeting and called Meng Linhe, the party secretary of Xiputun Village, to report on the situation of their village's struggle against the enemy. Secretary Huang Jing praised them, gave important instructions, and reported to the Northern Bureau of the Communist Party of China. However, there was no consensus on this issue at the Jizhong District Party Committee meeting. Some people opposed the adoption of a revolutionary two-sided policy, believing it to be a "right deviation."
In fact, Chairman Mao published an article "On Policy" in December 1940, stating: "There are also two-faced elements among the traitors and pro-Japanese faction, and we should treat them with a revolutionary two-faced policy." When attacking with the high-pressure policy of aggression against China, only by implementing the above strategic principles can we persist in resisting Japan." However, this conclusion was not deeply understood by some comrades in time. In order to study this issue, Secretary Huang Jing of the Jizhong District Party Committee took Comrade Li Chunlan, secretary-general of the district party committee, to the guerrilla zones near Dingxian and Anguo counties to conduct investigations and research. They held symposiums with grassroots cadres and made it clear that "guerrilla zones can become our The base areas are only more guerrilla. The two-faced regime in the guerrilla areas must be divided and disintegrated into a revolutionary two-faced regime.”

In June 1941, the Jizhong District Party Committee held an organizational work meeting. The meeting formally affirmed the issue of implementing a two-sided policy of revolution in enemy-occupied areas and areas near enemy areas. In his report, Secretary Huang Jing specifically talked about "Work Issues in Enemy-Occupied Areas and Backward Areas". He made a detailed analysis of the work in enemy and puppet strongholds, the work in enemy-occupied areas, and the work in areas close to the enemy, and put forward some suggestions on the work in enemy-occupied areas and backward areas. These areas can implement a two-sided policy of revolution. We must express the illegal content in a legal form to deal with the enemy. Party organizations in various places conscientiously implemented the instructions of the district party committee and selected the most reliable Communist Party members in the villages to serve as "pseudo village chiefs"
to deal with the Japanese and puppet troops and detect the enemy's movements. After that, there were many incidents where the puppet village chief handed over grain to the Japanese and puppet troops and immediately reported it to the local guerrillas, who set up ambushes along the way and intercepted the grain.

Because the Jizhong area is surrounded and infiltrated by enemies and is also a plain, battles are extremely frequent and cruel. As the top leader of the district party committee, Secretary Huang Jing must first consider the struggle against the enemy in all his work, so he pays great attention to military issues. In all major operations involving the struggle against the enemy, such as countering "siege", countering "mopping up", countering "cannibalization", etc., in addition to directly arranging the struggle against the enemy in the party and government system, he participated in discussing plans and formulating measures for relevant military operations. and participate in organizational command. When the tunnel struggle started in central Hebei, there were different understandings from top to bottom at the beginning. Political Commissar Cheng Zihua personally went to the area of Li County to investigate and study, and held a district party committee meeting under the chairmanship of Comrade Huang Jing, which affirmed the role of tunnels and unified their thinking. , issued instructions in the name of the district party committee, and the tunnel struggle began with great vigor.
In late March 1940, Military Region Commander Lu Zhengcao was ordered to lead the Jizhong Garrison Brigade to the Taihang area to participate in the pursuit of the Kuomintang Zhu Huaibing's stubborn troops. Political Commissar Cheng Zihua led the southward detachment from Jizhong to the southern Hebei, Hebei, Shandong and Henan areas to participate. Counterattack the three troops of the stubborn friends. At this time, the only leaders of the Jizhong Military Region were Chief of Staff Sun Yi and Director of the Political Department Sun Zhiyuan. Regarding major military operations, Sun Yi and Sun Zhiyuan went to the district party committee secretary Huang Jing to make decisions. At this time, the enemy took advantage of the main force of the Jizhong troops going out to fight and mobilized a total of 37,000 people from the 110th Division, the 27th Division, and the 8th Independent Mixed Brigade. The troops were divided into more than a dozen groups and aggressively besieged the Jizhong Anti-Japanese Base Area. At this time, there were more than 10,000 people in the units directly under the Jizhong Military Region, the Jizhong District Party Committee Headquarters, and mass organizations, stationed in the Song Village area of South and North in Suning County, with huge goals.
In this severe anti-"mopping up" situation, Chief of Staff Sun Yi based on flexible strategies and tactics, proposed a plan to let the leading organs "go" as the best strategy. He went to Huang Jing and Sun Zhiyuan for urgent consultation. He said that our target was too big and we lacked combat effectiveness. The best way was to divide them up. Secretary Huang Jing would lead one battalion, Comrade Sun Zhiyuan would lead three companies, and I would lead two companies. Company, each choose a direction to stick out.
After hearing the case of Chief of Staff Sun Yi, Secretary Huang Jing said very calmly: "This method of yours cannot work. The three of us are acting together and cannot be separated!" Director Sun Zhiyuan agreed with Secretary Huang Jing's view, but was unsure about the direction of action. idea. At dusk the next day, the enemy was already approaching me, so I decided to go eastward, crossing the Ziya River north of Xian County from Liubo Bridge and heading east, heading straight to the Hejian, Dacheng, and Qingxian areas. .
After the action plan was determined, Chief of Staff Sun Yi sent a telegram to the Eighth Army Division located on the west bank of the Ziya River, stating that the military region agencies and directly affiliated teams had moved eastward and had begun action. The Eighth Army Division sent a reply saying that the enemy situation on their side was even more tense. An enemy battalion was guarding the Liubo Bridge, and the military region's leading organizations could not move eastward under any circumstances.Sun Yi immediately explained the above situation to Huang Jing. Secretary Huang Jing said categorically, "The troops will stop advancing immediately and rest where they are!" Then he said, "The commander and political commissar are not here, so your chief of staff is the chief officer!"
At this moment, taking advantage of the moonlight and the light of the flashlight, Huang Jing, Sun Yi, and Sun Zhiyuan were discussing urgently under the thatched shed on the roadside, studying countermeasures. Sun Yi said decisively: "The troops' advance is blocked, if it doesn't work... Go back the way you came and move west!" Huang Jing and Sun Zhiyuan nodded in agreement. The troops immediately turned around and headed westward, passing between five enemy strongholds in the Wurenqiao area of Anguo County in broad daylight. Our large group of troops advanced in three directions. The soldiers of the guard force were all armed with guns and ready for ammunition. They were so powerful that the enemy did not dare to act rashly. The Japanese and puppet troops huddled on the turrets. Only after our rearguard troops passed by did they hear a burst of gunfire fired into the sky. After that, our troops safely passed through the Pinghan Road blockade and moved to the area of Kouhou Town, Xingtang County. As Huang Jing's confidential correspondent, I provide the leader with a one-fifty-thousandth military map at any time and follow closely behind him.
After this thrilling transfer, some people once doubted whether it was appropriate for the leadership to leave Jizhong in an emergency. Comrade Huang Jing reported to Peng Zhen, Secretary of the Northern Branch of the Communist Party of China. Peng Zhen said: "This action is right. Your team of ten thousand people may not be beaten to pieces by the enemy and suffer serious losses. Leading the team close to the mountainous area to avoid the enemy's edge is in line with Mao Zedong's strategic and tactical thinking." Afterwards, Huang Jing told Sun Yi, and they were both happy to be recognized by Peng Zhen.
The Jizhong Anti-Japanese Base Area is an important strategic area behind enemy lines in North China. It poses a great threat to the enemy. The Japanese invading army has long been eyeing the soldiers and civilians in Jizhong and adopted various measures in an attempt to occupy and control Jizhong, but failed. Succeed. In December 1941, the Japanese fascists launched the Pacific War, stepped up their efforts to extract resources from China, consolidated their occupied areas, and planned an unprecedented large-scale "sweep" in central Hebei in an attempt to fully control the central region. As the situation develops, the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Branch of the Communist Party of China and the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region have repeatedly given instructions to combine the anti-"cannibalization" struggle and make serious preparations to meet the enemy's spring "mopping up". The Party Committee of the Central Hebei District of the Communist Party of China and the Central Hebei Military Region have repeatedly issued instructions to prepare for the enemy's "mopping up". The "Jizhong Herald" also published an anti-"mopping up" editorial, calling on the military and civilians in the region to immediately eliminate the concept of peace and mobilize urgently. Meet the enemy's comprehensive "sweep"
.
"Working Policies and Tasks for 1942" was formulated and issued by Secretary Huang Jing of the Jizhong District Party Committee personally. This is the cover of Zhao Yongtian’s preserved mimeograph manuscript. (China Red Network Red Gallery)
In April 1942, under the chairmanship of Secretary Huang Jing, the district party committee and the military region issued emergency instructions against "mopping up", reanalyzing the situation and clearly stating: "After the outbreak of the Pacific War, the enemy The view that it is no longer possible to carry out a large-scale long-term 'mopping up' must be eliminated immediately and further active preparations be made ideologically and materially." On April 24, Secretary Huang Jing, Commander Lu Zhengcao, Chief of Staff Sha Ke, Acting Director of Zhuoxiong , etc. (At that time political commissar Cheng Zihua had other tasks in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region) agreed on the policy of countering "mopping up" and decided to The number of personnel in the leading organs of the party and government has been greatly reduced, from more than 4,000 to more than 1,000. The reduced personnel groups were dispersed to various regions, troops and subordinate units to work with the troops and the masses to resist "mopping up", and the weak and sick cadres were dispersed to strengthen the wall. The main forces must break through the enemy's encirclement, move from the inner line to the outer line, adopt "the enemy advances and we retreat", avoid the real situation and attack the weak, seize the opportunity to attack the enemy. The regional teams and county and district guerrillas in each subdivision dispersed and concealed activities in the original area, circling with the enemy, looking for opportunities to harass and attack the enemy.
The enemy made careful arrangements for this "mopping up", "to launch a surprise attack and encirclement operation against the main force of the Communist army in the central Hebei region, destroy their base areas, and at the same time take various political, economic, and ideological measures to Turn the area into a law and order area in one fell swoop.”
The life-and-death "May Day" anti-"mopping up" campaign in the Jizhong Anti-Japanese Base Area has begun. On May 1st, the Jizhong District Party Committee and the Jizhong Federation of Trade Unions held a meeting of directly affiliated cadres in Xu Zhangbao Village, Raoyang County to commemorate the May 1st International Labor Day and mobilize the people of the region to prepare for the counter-mopping up. Secretary Huang Jing and Commander Lu Zhengcao attended the conference and delivered speeches. Everyone is asked to take immediate action and join the fight against "mopping up".
From May 1st to 10th, it was the enemy's "mopping up" stage to lure our troops into the periphery of their encirclement. They compressed inward from all four sides to form a triangle between the Hutuo River, Fuyang River, and Shide Railway. A tightly sealed so-called "iron ring formation" made careful preparations for the sudden "iron wall encirclement" in the second stage. It plans to concentrate its forces to implement an "iron wall encirclement" from the 11th to the 15th, in an attempt to annihilate the party and government leadership organs and the main forces of our Jizhong District.
On May 1, 1942, Secretary Huang Jing took a group photo of five people in Zhangbao Village, Raoyang County.

The Party Committee of the Central Hebei District of the Communist Party of China, the Administrative Office of the Central Hebei Province, and the Leading Organization of the Central Hebei Military Region, led by Commander Lu Zhengcao and Secretary Huang Jing, left the Xu Zhangbao Village area of Raoyang County on May 2 and jumped to Cangshi Road South, on May 8, before the enemy blocked the Fuyang River, he crossed the Fuyang River eastward, jumped outside the enemy's "iron wall encirclement" circle, and entered the Ren (Qiu) River (Jian) Dacheng (city) east of the Ziya River. ) area and dealt with the enemy for more than 20 days. During this period, we crossed the Ziya River four times, crossed the Jinpu Railway five times, and crossed the blockade 18 times. With the support and cover of the people, the enemy could not even find our shadow. During the first and second stages when the enemy concentrated its forces to carry out large-scale "mopping up", we did not suffer any major losses. Major General Saburo Nakamura, chief of staff of the enemy's 110th Division, had to lament: "A crusade like a gust of wind cannot capture the enemy."
At this time, the leaders of the military region analyzed the entire anti-"mopping up" situation and saw that the enemy was very determined to "mopping up". They could not treat it according to past anti-"mopping up" practices and must make longer-term plans. Later, Secretary Huang Jing and Commander Lu Zhengcao received a telegram from Deputy Commander-in-Chief Peng Dehuai from the Eighth Route Army headquarters. Agree with Huang and Lu's analysis of the situation in the central Hebei region, and agree with the transfer of the leading organs in central Hebei to the Hebei, Shandong and Henan regions through the southern Hebei region. On the evening of June 11, the leading organs of Jizhong District, including the party, government, military, and civilian departments and groups, braved Category 5 winds and passed through four blockades. At dawn the next day, they entered Wei County, Hebei Province. village. Zhangshi Village is located 25 kilometers northeast of Wei County. It is a guerrilla area in the southern Hebei Anti-Japanese Base Area. There are 8 enemy strongholds within 5 kilometers of the surrounding area. Our army was discovered by the enemy soon after entering the village, but the surrounding enemy strongholds were not large in strength. 500 people, the enemy in Wei County and Nangong is only 1,000 people. If a battle breaks out, they can hold out until dusk. Huang Jing, Lu Zhengcao, Sha Ke, and Zhang Xuesi lived in the north and east rooms of a compound. After urgent discussions, they decided to hide their forces and stick to the village until night to break out and move. When the leaders were discussing matters, Secretary-General Li Chunlan and I were standing by.
The battle started, and more than 30 Japanese and puppet troops came swaggering from the northwest of the village to urge the civilians. Lu Zhengcao said to Huang Jing, in order to face a more severe situation, we must calmly respond to the battle, fight at close quarters, fight in small quantities, and use mushroom tactics. Fight back with rifles and grenades, not light and heavy machine guns and mortars. Huang Jing, who was sitting in the war room, said to Lu Zhengcao: "That's absolutely correct, I agree!"
After the exchange of fire with the enemy, the enemy gradually increased its troops, increasing to 1,000 at noon. The Japanese army used poison gas. Fortunately, the gust of wind reduced the power. We all Wearing a respirator mask. In the afternoon, the number of enemy troops increased by 1,500, and many attacks were repelled by our army. After dark, I fired mortars, light and heavy machine guns, and rifles to counterattack. The enemy was stunned and stunned, and the enemy's artillery fire was silenced. The enemy with serious casualties retreated. At nine o'clock in the night, our army Victory breakout in two ways. In this battle, more than 300 enemy people were killed and wounded, and we suffered more than 90 casualties.After this battle, the Central Military Commission of the Communist Party of China issued a commendation, hailing it as "an example of plain guerrilla warfare and rural defensive warfare", which was recorded in the military history of the Eighth Route Army.
After Zhang Shi broke through, the leadership of the Central Hebei District went south to the Hebei, Shandong, and Henan Military Region. After a short period of rest and replenishment, it began to move westward in late August, crossed the Wei River, crossed the enemy-occupied Ping-Han Railway, and entered the Taihang Mountains. Under the influence of the local A warm welcome from the military and civilians. September 18 was the 11th anniversary of the September 18th Incident. The 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army held a meeting outside Xiguan, Shexian County, where it was stationed, to welcome the Jizhong troops arriving in the Taihang Mountains. Members of the 2nd Company of our district party committee sat in the back right corner of the venue. The conference first held a military parade. The 129th Division, the Guard Brigade and the 27th Regiment of the Central Hebei Army were reviewed. After reviewing the troops, Deputy Commander-in-Chief Peng Dehuai delivered an important speech. After the conference, Secretary Huang Jing and Commander Lu Zhengcao made a special trip to the Northern Bureau of the Communist Party of China and the Eighth Route Army's forward headquarters to report on the situation of the military and civilian struggles against the enemy in the Jizhong Anti-Japanese Base Area in the past few years. The heroic scenes are described in detail. Soon, the Jizhong troops, led by Commander Lu Zhengcao, returned to the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region and approached Jizhong to continue directing the anti-"mopping up" struggle in Jizhong.
In September 1942, Huang Jing was ordered to be transferred to the Party Committee of the Hebei, Shandong and Yu District of the Communist Party of China, and he said goodbye to the land of Jizhong Plain and the people there that he loved and was familiar with.
In October 1948, I met Huang Jing once in Shijiazhuang, an important town in Hebei Province. At the beginning of the Pingjin Campaign, the central government appointed Huang Kecheng as secretary of the Tianjin Municipal Committee and director of the Military Control Commission; Huang Jing was appointed mayor of Tianjin, formed a takeover command, and stationed in Shengfang Town near Tianjin. Huang Jing established the policy of "according to each system, top-down, leaving intact, taking over first and managing later" for taking over big cities. The main takeover agencies are divided into three major departments: finance, culture and education, and municipal administration, with 13 subordinate takeover offices, and preparations have been made.
After the founding of New China, I listened to his teachings many times in Beijing. When I heard that Comrade Huang Jing passed away from illness, I wrote a poem to express my condolences and commemoration.
The martyrs will remain famous in history forever.
led eight million soldiers and civilians, and the banners rolled across Hebei.
Cannons roared in the plains, and horses set off with swords and swords.
Stained with bullets and blood, they vowed to rejuvenate the nation.
Fire is spreading all over Hebei, and flowers are blooming in Shandong.
shouldered the important task of founding the country and will remain famous in history.
stood in awe before his soul, feeling deep affection for his master and friend.
Jiuquan’s loyal bones and spirit are still there, and I enjoy watching the spread of Peng’s wings.
It has been more than half a century since Secretary Huang Jing left us, but the memories and images of his work and fighting in Jizhong during the Anti-Japanese War have left me unforgettable for a long time.
During his work in Jizhong, Secretary Huang Jing showed that he was an open-minded, noble-minded, knowledgeable, quick-thinking and talented leader; he was a leader who had no official atmosphere, no airs, talked and laughed happily, and was approachable; He is a leader who is deeply rooted in reality, connected with the masses, attaches great importance to investigation and research, is down-to-earth, rigorous and pragmatic. Comrade Huang Jing's excellent thoughts, style, qualities and talents will remain in the hearts of Jizhong forever and will never be forgotten.
On February 10, 1958, after the death of Comrade Huang Jing, Bo Yibo delivered a eulogy on behalf of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and made the following evaluation of Huang Jing: "Comrade Huang Jing is an outstanding member of our party. He is loyal to the Chinese working class and the Chinese people. A revolutionary fighter. Under the leadership of the party, Comrade Huang Jing made important contributions to the revolutionary cause of the working class in a complex and difficult environment. "This evaluation of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China is a summary of Huang Jing's life. Undoubtedly, it also includes his experience fighting in Hebei Province during the Anti-Japanese War.
Comrade Huang Jing will always be an example for us to learn from.
