On September 25, 1933, Chiang Kai-shek mobilized tens of thousands of Kuomintang troops to launch the fifth "encirclement and suppression" campaign against the Red Army.

Due to Wang Ming's wrong leadership, Chairman Mao's guerrilla warfare correct suggestions were rejected. In the end, the Red Army had no choice but to rush into the battle and was completely passive. Even after a year of tenacious confrontation, In the end, he still had to be defeated.

In October 1934, the main force of the Red Army had to abandon the Central Revolutionary Base of and started the Long March with great difficulty.

was instructed by their superiors that during the transfer of the Red Army's Long March, five comrades were responsible for transporting confidential items.

But when the five comrades moved to Xianyuan Township, Wanzai County, Jiangxi Province, they were unfortunately pursued by the enemy and died gloriously. As a result, there was no news about the confidential items they were responsible for transporting.

It is reported that the confidential items transported by the five comrades witnessed the difficult development of our party's revolutionary cause and are a very precious historical relic.

What is this confidential item? Who are the five comrades responsible for transporting confidential items? Were the classified items later found? What kind of touching historical story is behind it?

The lost item is actually the seal of our party

This precious item lost during the transfer of the Red Army is actually the official seal of the Chinese Soviet government .

This seal is made of silver, with a sharp sickle and a strong hammer in the middle. The background at the bottom is the earth we live on, and on both sides of the earth are lush wheat ears.

In addition, 20 official script Chinese characters are engraved on the periphery of the seal. The Chinese characters read "Executive Committee of the Soviets of the Hunan, Hubei, and Jiangxi Provinces of the Chinese Soviet Republic." The characters are separated by two bright five-pointed stars.

The entire seal is solemn and solemn, representing our party's firm belief in the victory of the Chinese revolution. At the same time, it also witnesses the difficult development process of our party's revolutionary cause, which is extremely precious.

Speaking of the origin of this seal, it must be traced back to 1928 .

After the revolutionary ancestors such as Peng Dehuai and Teng Daiyuan successfully led the Pingjiang Uprising in July 1928, the Hunan-Hubei-Jiangxi Revolutionary Base was established in the border areas of Hunan, Hubei, and Jiangxi provinces. It was also called the Hunan-Hubei-Jiangxi Soviet Area at that time.

In July and September 1931, the Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China and the Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi Provincial Soviet Government were established one after another, and then the first Workers, Peasants and Soldiers Congress was held in Pingjiang, Hunan. At the conference, the representatives unanimously agreed to create Seal of the Soviet Government of Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi Provinces.

After that, the seal of the Soviet government of Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi provinces played an absolute role in countless important meetings of the Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi provincial committees and provincial governments, and was left on important documents such as the development of the Red Army, land reform, and personnel appointments. Leaves a bright mark.

In April 1932, the Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government moved their offices to Xianyuan Township, Wanzai County. Later, under the correct leadership of the Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government, people in the border areas of Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi provinces carried out A vigorous revolutionary struggle began and the Red Army continued to grow and develop.

It is reported that in the past two years, the Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi Soviet areas have enjoyed economic and cultural prosperity, forming a central revolutionary base area with more than 40 counties and more than 3 million people.

But precisely because of this, the Kuomintang army felt deeply panicked. After some research, they finally pointed the finger at the Soviet areas of Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi, and then launched the cruel fifth "encirclement and suppression" campaign.

On September 25, 1933, Chiang Kai-shek mobilized tens of thousands of Kuomintang troops to besiege the Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi Soviet areas in multiple directions. However, the Red Army in the base area at that time had less than 100,000 troops and faced several times the number of enemies. Coupled with the shortage of weapons and equipment, Due to the disparity, the Red Army finally failed in October 1934.

In order to preserve its strength, the Red Army finally decided to abandon the Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi Soviet areas, and then began the arduous Long March.

The five comrades swore to defend to the death

After the transfer of the main force of the Central Red Army began, a secret transfer team was set up. It was mainly responsible for the transfer of important documents, equipment and items in the Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi Soviet areas to ensure that they would not fall into the hands of the enemy, and then target the enemy. Our party poses a threat.

Among them, the seal of the Chinese Soviet Government was transferred by five comrades: Zhang Chunji, Qiu Siyan, Yi Rong, Wang Qun, and Liu Bofang.

Before departure, the five comrades sat together, firstly to discuss the transfer route, and secondly to cheer each other up. No matter what happens on the road, the seal must be well protected. The seal must be there when the people are there.

Before setting off on the road, five comrades wrapped the seal in three layers with oil paper, and then put it into a black leather bag, which was then carefully kept by Comrade Wang Qun.

On the way to transfer, the five comrades did not carry weapons with them in order to conceal their identity. Instead, they covered their clothes and faces with mud, pretending to be poor people.

But unfortunately, when they moved to Xianyuan Township, Wanzai County, Jiangxi Province, they were still discovered by the enemy.

On this day, the five comrades who had been running around for dozens of hours were already so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs. So they quietly came to a dense forest, investigated the nearby environment, and only started after ensuring safety. He took out the dry and hard pancake from his backpack and started to eat it.

"Bang——" Suddenly, several gunshots were heard from the periphery of the woods. Captain Zhang Chunji, who has many years of military combat experience, immediately stood up : "Everyone, be careful, we have been targeted by the enemy."

It turns out that the enemy has already deployed spies in the territory of Xianyuan Township. Anyone who appears or appears strange will be discovered early by the enemy and will send people to deal with it on the spot.

The five unarmed comrades are already weak in power, but what should they do when faced with the pursuit of dozens or hundreds of people?

In response to this, Zhang Chunji took the initiative to stand up and said, "I will be responsible for delaying the enemy troops for a while, and you four comrades will escape separately." Then, Zhang Chunji turned to look at Wang Qun, "Comrade Wang Qun, you must Protect the seal well..."

Faced with the emergency situation, although everyone was very worried about Zhang Chunji who was left behind, they could only do this for the sake of the party and the country.

Soon, the enemy troops caught up. They thought they would leave with satisfaction after shooting the lonely Zhang Chunji, but unexpectedly, they did not give up and immediately began to search the entire forest again.

Wang Qun and other four comrades arrived for the first time and were not familiar with the terrain of this forest. Even though they shuttled through the woods at the fastest speed, they still lost their way because they could not find the direction.

In the end, in a very short period of time, a large number of enemy troops fiercely attacked the location of the four comrades.

At this time, Wang Qun held the black leather bag in his hand tightly, and his mind suddenly buzzed. Even if he died gloriously, he could not let the seal fall into the hands of the enemy.

Then, Wang Qun had an idea. He dug a deep hole under a nearby big tree with his bare hands, then put the black leather bag in, filled it with soil, stepped on it with his feet, and spread a handful of yellowing leaves on the ground. On the dirt.

Wang Qun walked around the big tree two or three times to ensure that they would not be easily discovered by the enemy, and then left decisively.

Every revolutionary is a fearless hero. In less than an hour, Wang Qun and four other comrades still failed to escape the enemy's pursuit. They all died under the enemy's cold bullets and were left here. In this deserted land.

Afterwards, although the central government sent people to search for the bodies of the five comrades and the seals of the Central Soviet Government, nothing was found in the end.

Where did the seal that Comrade Wang Qun buried under the big tree go? This question has troubled the world for nearly 30 years. It was not until 1963 that it was inadvertently discovered by two lumberjacks.

A lumberjack was lucky enough to discover

30 years later. In 1963, at the Xianyuan Township Police Station in Wanzai County, Jiangxi Province, a pair of brothers in their 20s looked nervous and rubbed their hands on their pants repeatedly from time to time.

This pair of brothers, the elder brother is Guo Taoren and the younger brother is Guo Xingren, they are lumberjacks from the Guanyuanshan Forest Farm in Xianyuan Township.

The two brothers have been dependent on each other since childhood. Their parents died early and they have been living by begging all year round. It was not until they were kindly taken in by a forest farm owner a few years ago that they were able to get a serious job.

"Tell me, what's going on with this seal?" the police from the police station asked the two brothers seriously.

The younger brother Guo Xingren was timid and was too frightened by the police to raise his head. The older brother Guo Taoren took a deep breath and told the whole story.

One day in October 1963, the two brothers Guo Taoren and Guo Xingren went up the mountain to cut trees as usual. Somehow, it was already the beginning of autumn, but the weather was still very hot that day. The brothers were already sweating profusely after cutting down two trees.

"Brother, take a rest for a while!" Guo Taoren quickly picked up the towel on the ground and wiped the huge beads of sweat on his forehead.

I saw my brother breathing heavily and walking towards his younger brother. Then the two slowly sat down and chatted casually.

Guo Xingren handed his brother a bottle of water, and then asked: "Brother, I heard that there is a girl in the next village who is very good-looking. Do you like it?"

Guo Taoren suddenly grinned: "I like it, but I like it. Given our conditions, it’s better not to have any illusions.”

“If you don’t want to, then I will pursue you and I will become your sister-in-law. Don’t regret it!” Guo Xingren deliberately teased his eldest brother.

"You bastard, believe it or not, I will whip you!" Guo Taoren said as he pushed his naughty brother to the ground.

At this time, Guo Xingren, who was lying on the ground, suddenly shouted, as if something hard clicked behind his back. Guo Xingren turned over and saw that it was a dark hard object, it looked like a seal.

The curious brothers rinsed the seal with water. After washing it, they found it was a silver object, which seemed to be worth some money, so they put it in their bag and took it back to the forest farm dormitory.

A few days later, the forest farm owner had something to do at home, so he arranged for brothers Guo Taoren and Guo Xingren to help go to the county to attend a forestry conference. The conference was very lively with people coming and going. During the

meeting, the two brothers Guo Taoren and Guo Xingren were not very educated and did not understand the content of the meeting and were not very interested, so they took out the seals in their bags and studied them carefully.

At this time, a big brother passing by stopped, lowered his head and asked softly: "What are you holding?" The generous Guo Taoren casually handed the seal to the big brother.

The seal has a sickle, axe, hammer, and a red star pattern. After reading the seal, Big Brother's face suddenly became a little strange., "This thing is a treasure!"

Perhaps he was afraid that Big Brother would take away the valuable things he picked up. The two brothers replied hesitantly: "How can this be a treasure? It's worthless and worthless..."

Unexpectedly, the eldest brother turned out to be a researcher at the County History Institute. He knew very well what the seal meant. Representing the historical significance and spiritual value, I hurried to the door and dialed the number of the county police station.

After a while, several veteran policemen from the police station arrived at the forestry conference. Under the testimony of Big Brother, the two brothers Guo Taoren and Guo Xingren were taken away in full view of the public.

The two brothers who had just arrived at the police station were confused. It was not until the police station police took the seals out of their backpacks that the two brothers knew that the seal was responsible.

On the second day, under the leadership of brothers Guo Taoren and Guo Xingren, the police station, in conjunction with relevant local departments, dispatched three large trucks and arranged more than 100 staff members to conduct a blanket search at Guanyuanshan Forest Farm.

tried to find the relics left by the five comrades at that time, as well as other important objects that can represent the history of the Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi Soviet areas.

Later, the two brothers Guo Taoren and Guo Xingren, who were standing on one side of the forest farm, met Big Brother from the forestry conference the day before. Big Brother patiently explained to the two brothers the revolutionary history of the Hunan-Hubei-Jiangxi Soviet Area and the Chinese Soviet The historical significance represented by the government seal.

After listening to Big Brother's explanation, the two brothers suddenly had an epiphany and at the same time were in awe of the heroes of the revolutionary period.

was recognized as a national first-class cultural relic

In fact, there were three Chinese Soviet government seals during the revolution. The first one was a silver seal picked up by the brothers Guo Taoren and Guo Xingren in a forest farm.

This seal was recognized as a national first-class cultural relic in 1994 and is treasured in the Hunan-Hubei-Jiangxi Revolution Memorial Hall in Wanzai County, Jiangxi Province.

and the other two are wooden seals .

At that time, because the first silver seal was accidentally lost, the Soviet government made a second seal out of wood. However, due to constant transfer during the war, the second wooden seal was unfortunately lost soon after.

It was not until many years later that it was discovered in the home of a rural grandmother and was collected by relevant departments and displayed in the Pingjiang Uprising Memorial Hall in Pingjiang County, Hunan Province.

After the second wooden seal was lost, the Soviet government produced a third wooden seal. However, with the development of the Chinese revolution, this seal had no use.

As the saying goes, cultural relics are precious historical and cultural heritage. They are the concrete embodiment of the history, culture, economy, art and other high values ​​of a certain period.

Although the Chinese Soviet government seal has been forgotten by the world for nearly thirty years, the historical significance behind it is extremely precious.

It records the hardships and hardships of the Chinese revolution, and also constantly warns us today to cherish everything that is happy and beautiful now, because these are the confidence earned for us by the blood of our revolutionary ancestors.

Thanks to our revolutionary ancestors, we will never forget them!
