The First Party Congress Memorial Hall of the Communist Party of China Tongling County
After the First Party Congress of the Communist Party of China Tongling County was held, the Tongling County Committee of the Communist Party of China Tongling County carried out the following work:
01 Strengthen the Party’s organizational construction
Following the establishment of the Tongling Third District Committee of the Communist Party of China, in November 1939, the Tongling North Second District Committee of the Communist Party of China was established. The district committee is stationed in Dun Shangchen, and is under the jurisdiction of party branches and central branches such as Sanmin, Heping, Liutan, and Yongfeng.
In the spring of 1940, the Tongling Middle Second District Committee of the Communist Party of China was established. The district committee was stationed in the area of Luobuchong, and it has jurisdiction over party branches and central branches such as Zhucun, Taocheng, Taofeng, and Shun'an . Party organizations are spread throughout Tongling villages. To this end, the Tongling County Committee of the Communist Party of China held three party training classes in the Lotus Pond of Fenghuang Mountain to train party members and cadres such as branch secretary, branch committee member and farmer association director.
02 Strengthen local armed construction
According to the instructions of the Tongling County Committee of the Communist Party of China, in August 1939, the Yejiazhou guerrillas established by Ye Weihu , the Youth Battalion organized by Chen Xiaokai , the guerrillas formed by Gao Yuankai, and the Two Lakes guerrillas formed by Liu Ying, were jointly organized to form Tongling Independent Company , and Ye Weihu served as company commander. The company has a total of 60 or 70 people, with two platoons under its jurisdiction. It has strong combat effectiveness and played an important role in the anti-Japanese struggle behind the enemy in Tongling. In Tongling Mountains, the Orion Team has been developed and expanded.
03 Organize various anti-Japanese mass groups
The Tongling County Committee of the Communist Party of China let go of the masses, form anti-Japanese groups, and strengthen anti-Japanese forces. The agricultural anti-epidemic associations, youth anti-epidemic associations, women anti-epidemic associations, industrial anti-epidemic associations, and commercial anti-epidemic associations in various places have been established like mushrooms after a rain. On September 1, 1939, the Tongling County Youth Anti-Japanese Association was established to unify the leadership of the youth anti-Japanese work in the county.
04 Carry out the struggle to borrow grain
Grain Struggle was a more influential mass movement led by the Tongling County Committee of the Communist Party of China during the Anti-Japanese War.
In May and June 1940, when the fire and yellow golf course were in trouble, the artillery fire of the Japanese invading army made large areas of Tongling deserted, the people were generally short of food, and the military supplies and the food was extremely tight. At this critical moment, the Kuomintang Tongling County Government did not take active measures to ensure supply, but instead secretly planned to transport a large amount of grain stock stored in the grain warehouse of Wang Village, Zhakou to Nanling County, in an attempt to cut off the grain supply of the general public, causing a grain shortage and plaguing our anti-Japanese military and civilians. The news spread and the crowd was infuriated. In response to this situation, the Tongling County Committee of the Communist Party of China, with Zhang Dong as secretary, decided to take quick countermeasures to expose the conspiracy of the diehards and never let them transfer the food.The Tongling County Committee of the Communist Party of China instructed the county Youth Anti-Japanese Association to take the lead and act together with the Township Agricultural Anti-Japanese Association, Youth Anti-Japanese Association and the Hunter Team.
In accordance with the instructions of the Tongling County Committee of the Communist Party of China, the county youth anti-epidemic association directors and members of the youth work team were dispatched immediately, and went deep into the villages and guarantees to widely publicize to the masses, exposing the sinister intentions of the Kuomintang Tongling County Government to transport grain to Nanling , and called on the masses to muster up the courage to fight. This launched a powerful struggle to borrow food.
Under the publicity and mobilization of the county youth anti-epidemic association, nearly a thousand people carried shoulder poles and rice baskets, formed a long team and drove to the base of the Kuomintang County Government of Wenjiashan in a mighty manner, shouting slogans and opposing the transportation of grain. Wang Ruilin, the Kuomintang Tongling County Mayor, Zeng Dawen, the county party secretary, and Chen Shangtan, the county grain management committee director, were frightened by the huge protesters and had to come forward to negotiate. Our representatives participating in the negotiations are Zhou Jiankai, director of the county youth anti-epidemic association, and others. When the negotiations began, Wang Ruilin said that the food needed to be transferred to the rear under the pretext of protecting food security. Zeng Dawen and Chen Shangtan also spoke one after another, just like the same. Our representative refuted reasonably and pointed out that Nanling is a grain-producing area and is the rear area that the enemy cannot attack, so there is no need to transport grain there. Tongling is at a time when the reign of the blue and yellow people. The government not only does not comply with the people's sentiments and helps the people to overcome the famine, but instead transports the food away, disturbs the morale of the army, restlessness of the people, hinders the war of resistance, and cannot escape the blame! The authorities should recognize the consequences and consider them carefully. The speeches of our representatives were righteous and stern. The leaders of the Kuomintang Tongling County Party and government were dumbfounded and speechless, and their arrogance was suddenly lost. However, the matter of borrowing food to help the people was still ignored.
When the Kuomintang Tongling County Government was exhausted, the next afternoon, the county Youth Anti-Japanese Association organized all villages to protect the masses, bringing shoulder poles, rice baskets and rice bags, and orderly came to the barn of the ancestral hall of Wangcun, Zhakou in a sect, and asked to borrow grain. Chen Shangtan, director of the Kuomintang County Grain Management Committee, was embarrassed and had to hand over the keys and open the granary. The masses happily distributed and picked grain.
started from 2 pm and was divided until 8 pm, "borrowed" more than 1,000 stones of grain from the Kuomintang county government. About 10 people from a squad of the Kuomintang County Standing Committee heard the news and rushed to Ji Barn with live ammunition to demonstrate threats. The members of the County Youth Anti-Japanese Association were on guard against each other with the hunter team, closely monitoring their every move, and ready to fight back against their suppression at any time. Seeing this, the Kuomintang County Standing Committee was timid and did not dare to take action. He turned around and fled towards Zhongming . The struggle to borrow food has achieved a complete victory!
At the same time, the Tongling County Committee of the Communist Party of China also led the local people to "borrow" the grain of Hu Zhuozai, the landlord of Fenghuang Mountain, and the grain of Mr. Wang Da, the village of Sanzhaozhangzkou. The masses were given food, and their emotions were rising, and they even joined the anti-Japanese struggle without hesitation.
For this reason, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China sent a telegram to praise Tong (ling) Fan (chang) and the mass movement has embarked on the formal path.
The victory of the struggle to borrow food by the Tongling County Committee of the Communist Party of China not only shows that the anti-Japanese mass movement led by the Communist Party of China follows the historical trend and is deeply loved by the people, but also shows that The Kuomintang’s stubborn people ’s rebellious actions to undermine the War of Resistance, which was despised by the world and was eventually despised by the people of the whole country!
