Whether we are thinking about our hometown or traveling to distant places, we always like to pursue the word "ancient" and praise the word "brave".
So, engraved deep in the memory, there are revolutionary holy places, old areas of the Anti-Japanese War, general headquarters pointed out by predecessors, and revolutionary battlefields filled with gunpowder in the old days...
These precious relics have always existed and carried the name. From ancient times to the present, culture has used this as a carrier to pass on from generation to generation, penetrating the vast dust of the years, recording the changes in world affairs, and telling people's long-term expectations.
To cherish history is to cherish the origin of a nation; to protect red culture is to protect the soul of a land. The best way to treat these cultural relics that have been sung by history and have been integrated into everything in the world is to make them "alive" vigorously and tell readers: What are the current appearances of those cultural treasures scattered like pearls on the land of the motherland? ? What kind of grace are they showing in the polishing of time?
In front of me is a dilapidated old house that has experienced the baptism of time. The mottled walls are clinging to tenacious moss. If it were not for the similarly yellowed revolutionary verses and propaganda materials on the walls, and the slightly dilapidated scene, it would be difficult to remember that period of life and death. It is connected with the history of the Anti-Japanese War, but there is no doubt that the building in front of you is the former site of Zenglongbo Revolution during the vigorous Anti-Japanese War.
"Ah Gong (meaning grandpa in Hakka), what is this dilapidated house for?" Tang Kejing's little Sun Xinxin asked, looking up and down at the old house in front of her. "This is not a run-down house. She has a great background," Tang Kejing, who is over ninety years old, replied.
"What's the background?" Xiao Xinxin asked curiously with wide eyes. "She, it's the former address of Zenglongbo County Party Committee Secretary!" Tang Kejing finished speaking with pride, and suddenly he felt a thousand thoughts, and his mind kept thinking about the glorious years of life and death with his comrades... The Zenglongbo Central County Committee Base was established. In the winter of 1939, the Kuomintang diehards launched the first anti-communist wave during the Anti-Japanese War across the country. After this reactionary wave spread to Guangdong, the Kuomintang Guangdong authorities ordered the disbandment of the Guangdong Youth Anti-Japanese Pioneers. and the Dongjiang Overseas Chinese Returning Hometown Service Group.
In January 1940, the Dongjiang authorities of the Kuomintang arrested 23 members of the Dongtuan Boluo team. In order to adapt to the changes in the situation, in March of that year, the Dongjiang Special Committee of the Communist Party of China decided to establish the Zenglongbo Center County Committee on the basis of the Zengcheng County Committee. , unified leadership of the party organizations in Zengcheng, Longmen and Boluo counties. The central county committee is located in Zengcheng Zhengguo Baimianshi Village. Guo Datong is the secretary, Yuan Jianwen is the organization minister, Li Guangzhong is the propaganda minister, and Huang Xiufang is the secretary of the Women's Committee. It has jurisdiction over the Boluo County Working Committee (the Boluo County Committee was established in December of the same year), the Longmen County Working Committee, and the three district committees of Paitan, Fuhe and Zhengguo in Zengcheng County.
In June 1940, the Provincial Party Committee held an enlarged meeting in Nanxiong, , and determined that the work of the Guangdong Party Group should focus on enemy lines and the front line. The Provincial Party Committee was divided into two provincial committees: Northern Guangdong and Southern Guangdong.
in July of the same year, the Dongjiang Special Committee also made corresponding adjustments, dividing the former East Special Committee and the Back East Special Committee. The Zenglongbo Center County Committee was under the leadership of the Former East Special Committee.
html In August , the personnel of the Central County Committee were adjusted again. Zheng Zheng was still the secretary, Zhong Jinghuan was appointed as the deputy secretary and director of the United Front, Li Zhijian (Wang Liwen) was appointed as the organization director, and other members' positions remained unchanged. After the adjustment of the Central County Party Committee, in order to strengthen the leadership of the frontline work in Zengcheng, the Central County Party Committee sent Zhong Jinghuan to move to the Xiping Township Central School (today's Paitan No. 2 Primary School) in Dougang Village, Paitan, to carry out the anti-Japanese struggle in the name of night school.

Supported the development of the revolution in Yan'an , but unfortunately he was caught halfway
After Zhong Jinghuan took office, according to the division of labor arrangements by his superiors, Zhong Jinghuan was appointed deputy secretary of the county committee, Chen Lizhong was appointed secretary of the Paitan District Committee, and Tang Zizhi (who joined the party in about 1937, and was introduced by Chen Li Zhong) He served as Chedong branch secretary, Wen Chaobo (who joined the party in about 1937) as Dabu Village branch secretary, Tang Zichang (who joined the party in about 1939) as Xiping Township (now Jiasongling Village) branch secretary, and Xie Boying served as Zhong Jinghuan's correspondent, in the form of an underground party Carry out revolutionary work.
It is reported that the site was chosen in Dougang Village (today’s Dougang Society of Jiasongling Village) because the brothers Tang Zizhi and Tang Zichang were from Dougang Village and were familiar with the local revolutionary situation and terrain, and Dougang was also Paitan was one of the core areas of the revolutionary struggle at that time.
In order to act cautiously, Zhong Jinghuan carried out anti-Japanese propaganda in the name of night school in the countryside of Dougang, and established the Jiangbei Working Committee (referred to as the Jiangbei Working Committee), accepting many students such as Long Chentai and Xie Boying, and developing advanced youth in Jiasongling Village. Zhang Dongxing, Zhang Hanbin, Zhang Ganquan and other first batch of anti-Japanese activists.
According to the memories of the old man Tang Kejing, he later embarked on the road of revolution and was infected by the heroic spirit and deeds of these advanced young people.
At that time, Yan'an was the core revolutionary base of the Communist Party of China. Since the development of the revolution required a large number of talents, the Working Committee sent two comrades, Tang Zizhi and Wen Chaobo, to send these progressive young people to Yan'an and hand them over to the comrades sent by Yan'an at the Shaoguan Zengcheng Association. When we first set out, Wen Chaobo said that he had forgotten to bring something and returned home. On his way home, he was captured by the Dabu Village Self-Defense Force. Later, Wen Chaobo was tortured by the Self-Defense Force and his whereabouts were revealed. Because Tang Zizhi did not wait for Wen Chaobo's arrival, he sent the educated youth to the Shaoguan Zengcheng Association alone. Unexpectedly, all the fellow villagers in Shaoguan were arrested and the work of the Jiangbei Working Committee was forced to stop.
Fortunately, Tang Zizhi and several young people were rescued after Tang Zizhi's father-in-law made many pleas for mercy and continued to join the revolution.

blossomed, and the party organization of the Central County Party Committee developed rapidly
In April 1941, , Secretary of the Central County Party Committee Zheng Zheng, member Yuan Jianwen was transferred, and Zhong Jinghuan took over as Secretary of the Central County Party Committee and Minister of United Front Work, Li Zhijian, Li Guangzhong, Guo Datong’s appointment remains unchanged, Huang Xiufang Promoted to committee members, Huang Cikuan is a member of the Central County Committee and Secretary of the Boluo County Committee, and Wu Bozhong is transferred to the position of Secretary of the Longmen County Working Committee.
After the adjustment, the Central County Committee attached great importance to party building work and vigorously developed the party's grassroots organizations. The 6 party branches in Paitan area have grown to 11 party branches, and the number of party members has increased from more than 30 to more than 70. Party organizations in Zhengguo area Party building work has also achieved good results. The number of party members has grown from more than 20 to more than 40. The party organization in the occupied area of Zengcheng has grown from the original 1 district committee and 2 rural party branches to 1 occupied area worker. Party committees, 3 district committees, 11 rural party branches and the assault squadron party branch of Wei Youxiang Brigade, the number of party members increased from more than 30 to more than 110.
In April 1941, the Central County Committee established the Guangdong People's Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Corps' Additional Independent Brigade (commonly known as the Lu Weiliang Brigade) on the basis of the anti-Japanese guerrilla cadres. Many guns are under the dual leadership of the Guangdong People's Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Corps and the Zenglongbo Central County Committee, with the Central County Committee as the main body. The Independence Brigade used Yau Mashan as its anti-Japanese base and often went deep into enemy-occupied areas such as Zhenlong, Zhongxin, Yonghe in Zengcheng, Luogang and Changping in Yubei, and Taipingchang in Conghua to attack the Japanese and puppet troops.

A tragic elegy, the Central County Party Committee came to an end under the impact of historical torrent
In the autumn of 1941, under the impact of the second anti-communist countercurrent launched by the Kuomintang, the political situation in Zengcheng took a turn for the worse.The cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist PartyThe situation of unity in the war of resistance was severely damaged. The people of Zengcheng The anti-Japanese struggle has entered the most difficult period.
After New Year's Day in 1942, the National Government of Zengcheng County launched an anti-communist countercurrent after careful planning and deployment. On March 3, Zhong Jinghuan, secretary of the Zenglongbo Central County Party Committee, and Li Zhijian, the organization director, went to the occupied area to guide work. Passing by Erlongwei, they were arrested by Zhang Yongqing's enemy-killing brigade. A group of Communists were also arrested by the Kuomintang authorities. The transportation routes for the former East Special Committee to maintain contact were temporarily interrupted, and they faced a critical moment of survival.
html In mid-May, transportation links between the Central County Party Committee and the former East Special Committee were restored. Li Guangzhong immediately went to Huiyang, where the Special Committee was based, and reported in detail what happened in the Zengcheng area to Yin Linping, Zheng Zheng, Huang Yu and other leaders: Due to the incident in May 1942 After the destruction of the Northern Guangdong Provincial Party Committee, the situation in the province suddenly reversed. In response to the anti-communist countercurrent in the Zengcheng area at that time, the former East Special Committee decided to make major adjustments to the party leadership structure in the Zenglongbo area: the Zenglongbo Center County Committee of the Communist Party of China was abolished. , Zengcheng County is divided into the county committee behind enemy lines (occupied area) and the rear county committee ( for the state-controlled area ), while the Boluo County Committee and the Longmen County Working Committee maintain their organizational systems. At this point, the Zenglong Bo Center County Party Committee has ended.
This is an old building built in the Qing Dynasty (the former site of Zenglongbo County Party Committee). After clearing away the weeds, the walls are still full of antique charm.
"Ah Gong, Ah Gong..." As Xiao Xinxin's little fat hands shook Tang Kejing's experienced hands, Tang Kejing's thoughts were suddenly brought back to reality, and he looked at Seeing the ruins in front of him, he let out a long sigh. "Ah, sir, you just said that this dilapidated house has a great origin. What is its origin?" Xiao Xinxin asked.
So, Tang Kejing recounted what he had just recalled in his mind to his great-great-grandson. As night fell slowly, under the dim light, the grandfather and grandson were having a long conversation on the stone bench. During this period, the old man Tang Kejing burst into tears when he talked about the emotional part. Xiao Xinxin, who was listening on the side, helped her grandfather at the same time. While wiping away tears, he scratched his head in confusion...

Jiasongling Village Party Branch SecretaryHuang XiaoqinNotes:
Continuing the Red Bloodline
writes a new chapter in the development of Jiasongling Village
In July 2014, President Xi Jinping In his speech at a ceremony to commemorate the 77th anniversary of the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the secretary said: "History is the best textbook and the best sobering agent. The Chinese people have unforgettable memories of the suffering caused by the war and have a tireless commitment to peace. "
On September 3, 2014, Xi Jinping once again emphasized in his speech at the symposium commemorating the 69th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, "The great anti-war spirit is precious to the Chinese people. Spiritual wealth." I deeply agree with this.
As the article says, "Cherishing history means cherishing the origin of a nation; protecting red culture means protecting the soul of a land. And the best way to treat these cultural relics that have been sung by history and integrated into everything in the world is , is to make them live vigorously. "The old revolutionary area of Dougang Society in Jiasongling Village, as one of the few red revolutionary bases in Jiasongling Village and even Paitan, will undoubtedly inherit the local red culture and remember the glorious history to future generations. An excellent carrier, and with the advancement of urbanization, our local red culture is facing the situation of being gradually forgotten, and it is imperative to continue this precious red blood.
Of course, I am just a recorder of glorious history. This article can leave a precious historical mark for the benefit of the vast number of Jiasongling villagers. In addition to the sincere teachings and eager expectations of the old man Tang Kejing during his lifetime, it is inseparable. Tang Zijin, Tang Zizhi’s sons Tang Renjun, Tang Youlian, Tang Zizhi’s grandson Tang Ruiyi, Tang Zichang’s sons Tang Wenzhuo, Tang Wenji, Tang Zichang’s grandson Tang Chaofan and others who are enthusiastic about the development of their hometown are also grateful to them for their valuable information and corrections.
At present, with the establishment of Xinwu B&B in Jiasongling Village, Dougang Revolutionary Old District is facing new development opportunities. How to use this to form a strong response to special projects and cultures such as Xinwu Bed and Breakfast , Dance Pai Xiu , etc., so as to Enriching tourist experience and writing a new chapter in the development of Jiasongling Village are also things worth thinking about and exploring.
To this end, we will take General Secretary Xi Jinping’s speech on remembering history as a guide, take the requirements of the local government as a criterion, search from top to bottom, and strive unremittingly...
