A true Communist Party member

-Remember my old leader Liu Wanshou Old Red Army

Narrator: Zhao Duohong

Record organizer: Zhang Wanzhong

Speaking of The situation of the female soldier Liu Wanshou in the West Route Army of China . She is a true Communist Party member that I admire with my heart.

She was the first party branch secretary of the Shipo Brigade of Peijiaying Commune, Gulang County, Gansu Province. Whether in the past or present, her name often appears in newspapers, magazines and other media. Her deeds and spirit always touches the people of her hometown, bringing a lot of inspiration and glory to the people of her hometown. She is a model figure worthy of respect and a true Communist Party member.

We are not only neighbors that are connected to the wall, but also relatives who are relatives who are relatives. My mother and her sister-in-law are also relatives. My second sister is her third daughter-in-law. According to local customs, I called her aunt Yan (my uncle was Yan Zongji), and I respectfully called her grandmother Yan. But outsiders always call her "Old Red Army Liu", "Secretary Liu" or "Grandma Liu".

I grew up under her influence and also under her education. When she was a child, she saw that I was smart, diligent, eye-catching, and sensible. In addition, my mother's physical condition was poor and her family was financially in trouble, so she recommended me to be a correspondent in the county government. She said: "When you go to a public place, you must not be greedy. If you pick up money in the office or bedroom, you must not leave it where you should be put; don't take advantage of the public, and do not take things that you shouldn't take." The incident has been going on for decades. Although the correspondent didn't regard it as a result, I remembered her words for the rest of my life and also affected me for the rest of my life.

Later, she recommended me to work in the planning team of the county water conservancy bureau. Before leaving, she told me earnestly: We must be successful, cherish opportunities, and work hard. We hope that I can go out of the house and have greater and better development outside. During the three years in the planning team, I worked hard, studied business hard, learned to prepare, and carried out planning. I quickly adapted to my job and actively participated in the "five good plans" of forest belts, channels, roads, farmlands and villages in the county. Just as I was devoted to my work with confidence, unexpectedly, the "Cultural Revolution" began, and the "rebels" seized the power of the "power faction". The planning team was impacted and forced to disband on their own. From then on, I lost the opportunity to eat public meals.

Ten years ago, I was in charge of the construction of new market building infrastructure in Haizitan Town, Gulang County. Someone falsely accused me of embezzling construction funds. The Gulang County Discipline Inspection Commission and the Wuwei City Inspection Team sent people to investigate and verify. I pointed to the wall of awards and certificates of honor and said: "This is me. You can do whatever you want. What responsibility will I bear if I find out." On the wall are photos of me taking photos with provincial leaders at the Gansu Provincial Model Workers' Commendation Conference, and honorary certificates of "Advanced Worker of Comprehensive Agricultural Experiment in Wuwei District"; representative certificates of participating in the Gulang County People's Congress; many honorary titles of "Outstanding Communist Party Member" awarded by the brigade and township "(commune). After in-depth investigation, inquiry, reconciliation, and visits, the truth was revealed and I was cleared. The comrades of the Discipline Inspection Commission gave me a thumbs up and said I was amazing! The Communist Party will not wrongly accuse good people.

I am grateful to Grandma Yan. It was she who taught me how to be a human being, laid a solid foundation for me in life, and set the first place in life "But"; I admire her and learn from her, so that I will always maintain the true nature of a Communist Party member.

During the decades when Liu Wanshou was the secretary of Shipo Brigade, I have been the production team leader, deputy brigade leader, private teacher, barefoot doctor , and militia company commander. I have very clear management, organizational ability, and leadership ability, and very much admire her.

She is ignorant, but no matter how big the occasion is, she is always calm and orderly, and well-informed. Compared with literate people, she sounds organized, interesting, and more down-to-earth, so she is more appealing.The commune held a meeting to convey instructions. She could remember it after listening to it once and convey it to the members and the members in full. She convened a mass meeting or gave a report on " Reminiscing the bitterness and sweetness ". She could talk for several hours in one breath, without dry mouth and tongue, which would benefit people. She is not afraid of hardship or fatigue when working. For example, she set out from Shipoliang in the morning, crossed Xinquangou and Lapangou on Jiugou and Shibapo, and went to the Laocheng Brigade and Daling Brigade dozens of miles away to do business, then returned to the Majialiang, Xishuigou and Xinjing Production Teams to inspect the work, and rushed to Peijiaying Commune for a meeting in the afternoon. Then she rushed home overnight, and sat under the kerosene lamp to sew clothes for her children and handle housework. She travels dozens of kilometers a day, and the skill she walks under her feet was practiced from Long March , which is well known to everyone in the countryside.

She has a particularly strong memory and can reach an amazing level. She knew how many people there were in the entire brigade, how many men and women there were, how many animals they were; how many people there were, how many men and women there were, how many sheep there were, how many cattle, how many mules, horses and donkeys there were, she could tell them; sometimes when the captain listened to the report, the captain accountant could point out the wrong place with the book in his hand. She knew exactly how much property income of each team was.

Commune cadres were unwilling to come to Shipo Brigade when they went to the countryside because Shipo Brigade was large and lived in scattered areas. The areas of Shipo, Gully mouth and Sungou are large and the ditches are deep, and the roads are difficult to walk. It is located south to Changling Mountain , north to Haizitan, and the distance between north and south is dozens of miles. It is necessary to cross mountains and ridges. Under the conditions at that time, it is entirely necessary to walk and measure the mountains, water, grass and tree here with your feet. Going to the countryside is very hard, and going to the countryside is equivalent to "paining down".

In summer and autumn, cadres are more afraid of going to the countryside to estimate their output with Secretary Liu. "Production estimation" means estimating the yield of grain crops in advance based on the growth of crops in that year. The purpose is to report grain output upwards and determine the distribution of food for members downwards, so as to be clear about it. When crops grow, they are estimated once in summer and once in autumn. After the crops are harvested, they are estimated again according to the size of the stacking. She had to estimate her output several times within a year, and she had to check it on the spot every time. In-depth investigation and research was her usual work style and habit. Like Shuwanzi, Liujiahuoxian, Shenjiawan, Zhongchuan Xianzi; the Poshantou, Nannigou, Caoershui, Shaxianzi and other areas of Goukou team are mostly located at the top of Changling Mountain. The mountain roads are rugged and the mountains are high and steep. The male comrades are afraid, but Secretary Liu always takes out the Red Army 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's 's till they take the lead in climbing, climbing one mountain after another, jumping one deep ditch after another, and carefully checking the growth and output of each plot. When I was tired, I just rested on the hillside for a while. When I was thirsty, I took a sip of mountain spring water. The sun shone red on her face and sweat wet her hair. She didn't scream bitterly or tired.

It is so hard to produce one or two production teams. The entire brigade has six production teams and has to travel to countless fields. I don’t know how many distances it takes or how much time it takes. She has always set an example by example, set an example for young cadres.

She did this, just as she said: I must be responsible to my superiors, and to the members and the masses. Most people say this means offending their leaders, but when she says these words, she often seems confident and confident. In the early 1960s when life was difficult, she knew deeply that the food and clothing of the masses was the biggest problem and the greatest responsibility on her shoulders.

What made Secretary Liu famous was that she organized and led the members to build water conservancy and lay out sand fields. water repair solved the difficulty of water consumption, crushing sand to build fields to solve people's food problems. These two major events were done in the hearts of the people. Their influence was so great and profound that it rewritten the history of Shipo's decades of no water to eat, and also wrote a new chapter in which the people of Shipo changed the world to solve the problem of food and clothing, reflecting the bravery of the Communist Party members, the foresight of the old Red Army soldiers, and the sentiment of seeking a welfare site for the people.

Today, we don’t want to talk about the construction of water conservancy in Shipo, because there are many people who know that Shipo water repairs, and there are many publicity reports. Now, we only talk about the fact that the Shipo brigade lays sand fields to increase production, because as time goes by, there are only a handful of people who know some things.

Sand-pressed fields were a great feat in the 1960s when my hometown people fought hard against their poor destiny under the harsh living conditions of "nine years of droughts" in order to change the appearance of drought and improve their living standards.

Shipo Brigade is located at the foot of Changling Mountain, with seven ditches and eight beams, and ravines crossing. There are many sand ditches, many sand and gravel, and many poor land. The weather is drought for nine years, and the land is widely planted and harvested. There are unique conditions for laying sand and pressing fields. She thought that she could not stay in the loess and was poor, and she should try every means to change the poverty of the members and the masses. Maybe it was because she thought with her heart, maybe it was because she was brainstorming, maybe it was because she was knowledgeable. She once went to Yongdeng for a meeting. She passed by Xinbao area and saw that the local sandy crops were growing very well and were inspired. So, a bold idea came into her mind, by laying sand fields, increasing grain output and changing the state of poverty. Under her call, the cadres and members unified their thoughts and took immediate action, and launched a massive "field-making movement" of sand-plated fields.

At that time, the main way of sand pressing was to carry people, donkeys, and racks and carts.

When a person is carrying a back, one person carries a sir-gui back bucket. When carrying sand, put the back bucket on the dug sand table and load the sand. When pouring sand, grab the bottom of the back bucket with one hand and the rope with the other. With the shoulder tilted, the mouth of the bucket is facing down, and pour out the sand. In the era when mechanical equipment was extremely short, it was convenient to get in and out of sand pits with back buckets and sand pits, and sand pits of all sizes are suitable, and they are more suitable for individual labor, which plays a good role in accordance with local conditions.

When carrying the donkey, prepare a saddle on the back of the donkey. Two funnel-shaped baskets are installed on both sides of the saddle. The mouth surface is large and the bottom surface is small. The bottom is made to make a living. Tie the open and closed buttons, close when loading sand, and remove when pouring sand. Replacing human power with animal power can reduce labor intensity and improve labor efficiency .

Back then, people vividly regarded livestock as people's "wings", sharing joys and sorrows with us, treating them as members of the family, and as their own "family". When you get home, you can have no food or drink, but you have to feed the animals first. Because on arid land, livestock become people's "wings" and good assistants, and also become the lifeline on which people rely for their survival.

Cart pulling sand is generally suitable for places with flat terrain and far distances. Two people tied a rope to the axle of the rack, one person pulled the strap and the other person pushed and shoved. Compared with people carrying animals, the carts are pulled more and run faster, which can greatly speed up the sand pressing speed and improve sand pressing efficiency. If a production team owns several cars, it can be regarded as an advanced tool, which is more powerful. And it is even rarer for families to have cars. At that time, there was a car, which was equivalent to the current family's proud car.

Back sand is very hard and requires a lot of clothes. At that time, the planned economy was in short supply, and the supply was based on tickets. In order to reduce the wear of clothes, the production team sent a special person to the Zhongwei of Ningxia to buy horse clips with sand back. The size, shape and color were equivalent to the red horse clips worn by volunteers now. They were strong, thick, durable, and were an excellent tool for sand back and they once played an important role in the battlefield of sand back. During the sand pressing process of

, cadres and the masses spontaneously created the method of " contracting to household " and "quantitative compensation". I think this was the policy of "investing production to households" in rural areas in the 1980s. It was a successful application of her in that era. It greatly stimulated the enthusiasm for labor and mobilized everyone's enthusiasm for labor. In order to press more sand, we raced against time and rushed forward, men, women, young and old all carried sand together. The whole family was carrying sand, and they could carry one bucket of sand within their ability, and could carry one bucket of five liters of five liters. The amount of sand on the back is calculated based on the "dou" and "lift" of the food standards. Ten liters are one dou, and ten liters are one stone (dan). ) One stone is five divisions of labor, and two stones are ten divisions of labor. When carrying sand, pour the sand and gravel into a pile of sand of uniform size to facilitate estimation and acceptance.In order to carry more sand and earn more work points, people spontaneously carried out labor competitions. The day before, I had finished the sand, and I carried sand at the fifth day of the next day. The sand was no less than the life of carrying coal on the mountain. I walked on the dark night and topped the sky. I started from the fifth day of and slept in the middle of the night. The shoulders on the back were red and swollen, and the palms were peeled off. Sweat shaking off the stars, and footsteps awakened dawn. The piles of sand all over the ground are like the notes of labor, the paths with sand on their backs are like the source of life, and the rising sun is like the hope in the heart...

A number of "desperate three-man" who carry sand have emerged: such as the Xishuigou team: Yang Yutang, Sang Changsheng, and Liu Shenghong; the Ma Jialiang team: Wang Yuelu, Zhang Mingzhi, and Ma Yupu; the Goukou team: Zhao Youqian, Zhang Zhaoren, and Ma Chengbiao; the Shipo team: Li Nengdi, Zheng Xiyu, and Fang Wangong; the Sungou team: Wang Baoguo, Li Quanji, and Zhao Tongwen; the Xini team: Liu Lude, Dang Zhaode, and Shi Shengyan..., etc., they are willing and dedicated elements on the front of the sand, outstanding representatives of hard work and hard work, and ordinary heroes who devote themselves to the collective and unknown.

Sungou and goblewreck two teams press sand on five troughs more than ten miles away from the village. They eat and live in the ground shop. There are no fresh sparse vegetables in winter, only yellow rice and thick rice with pickled cabbage. The accommodation environment is harsh and living conditions are harsh. It takes several months to work...

In order to press sand, some people almost paid the price of their lives: When Wang Zhongxin, a member of the Xishuigou team, dug sand, a sand cliff a few feet high, suddenly collapsed, and dust fog surged into the sky. People heard the "boom" sound and rushed to the accident site. They saw that their whole body was pressed under the sand pile, with only their head exposed. Due to timely rescue, they survived the thigh fracture and left their lifelong disability.

During the day and night of sand pressing, Secretary Liu was unwilling to give in and couldn't sleep at night. He was concerned about the progress of the sand pressing of the entire brigade and was concerned about the safety of the sand pressing of each team. He went out before dawn and ran around the sand pressing construction sites, checking the thickness of the sand layer and inspecting the size of the sand. Her public and selfless spirit and her feelings of serving the people are left in people's memories and engraved in people's reputation!

Under her leadership, she carried forward the arduous entrepreneurial spirit of daring to change the sun and the moon to a new sky. Every year, the slack seasons of winter and spring, the cadres and the masses work together, Yugong moves mountains, perseveres, and presses sand continuously, and pieces of green sand land continue to extend, and pieces of stable production continue to appear. After several years of continuous struggle, the sand-pressed area of ​​Shipo Brigade reached about 2,000 mu, and the output per mu was originally increased to 500 kilograms. These impressive achievements were fully recognized by superiors and rewarded, and several chassis of the racks were awarded to Shipo Brigade. " Gansu Daily " reported on Secretary Liu's advanced deeds in laying sand fields, which greatly encouraged the morale and confidence of cadres and the masses.

Spring and autumn fruits, cold and summer. Hard work has reaped the joy of a good harvest. From then on, green sand land and dry wheat became the pride of people in the stone slope. "Bald Wheat", an agricultural product that represents the geographical indication of the hometown, has extremely tenacious vitality and drought-resistant quality, grown by nature, unique protection of green sand and sufficient sunshine, without applying any pesticides and chemical fertilizers, becoming a pollution-free green product in the hometown. Run noodles, inch noodles, dry land buns, and dry land flour have become a food brand that people in my hometown deserve to be proud of and proud.

Since the sandy land has been established, the people of Shipo have ended the history of no vegetables and vegetables. Under the blue sky, the endless green watermelons have become a beautiful scenery on the long-dried land. Watermelon with flower skin, melon with sesame skin, cantaloupe with green skin, gourd (winter melon), red peppers, purple eggplant... Whenever the harvest season is piled like a hill, spread across the seddrip beams on the stone slopes, spread across the five troughs of the new well, spread across the Linjiasha River in Xishuigou, and spread across the Liujiaba in Majialiang... Under the sunlight, it emits an attractive light.

Speaking of the watermelons in the stone slope sandy land, I have to say a real and intriguing historical story:

It is said that during the "Cultural Revolution", the county party secretary Zhu Binglin used a cart to pull the bedding and roll it to all parts of the county to take turns to accept criticism and controversy. When passing by the Sun Grotto of the Shipo Brigade and the five watermelon fields, it was hot and the thirst was unbearable. Seeing the old melon farmers take out sweet sandy land watermelons to "enter" the ruling party, which moved the cadres who were criticized and controversy and kept it in mind. In the 1970s, when drilling wells and drought resistance, the supporting indicators for machine wells were extremely tense. The brigade cadres went to apply. I heard that the person from Shipo brigade was from Shipo. Secretary Zhu, who rehabilitated the clear snow, was grateful to the kindness of the people of Shipo, and granted six sets of machine wells (six teams) at one time to provide favorable conditions for drilling wells and to resist drought, flatten fields and land preparation, and to change the appearance of poverty as soon as possible. It is also a rare historical opportunity. The people of Shipo are rejoicing and full of yearning and longing for the future...

In the decades of arid mountainous areas, the green sand land has nurtured us generation after generation. We have contributed year after year to the country, played an important role in solving the problem of food and clothing for the people, and made great contributions. We have a deep attachment to it. Secretary Liu Wanshou is an advocate, organizer, leader, participant and practitioner of sand and field pressing. We have deep respect for the old Red Army soldier Secretary Liu Wanshou. She is a Communist Party member who will always live in the hearts of the people of Shipo Brigade. The green pine trees in Changling Mountain bowed to her, and the green water in Nannigou thanked her! Today's beautiful life is as her original intention, and today's prosperous China is as she hopes for. I hope that Liu Wanshou can see today's happy life in heaven and will always be relieved by it with a smile.

Looking back at the sky of history, some scenes are blurred, while others are vivid in my mind. Green sand land and dry wheat, this historical term that once had enough food and clothing for the people of Shipo, should always remember it. It embodies the noble qualities of an outstanding Communist Party member and the noble feelings of an old Red Army soldier; it once was like a bright light, igniting people's hope for life and guiding people's direction of moving forward; it is more like a wisp of fragrant fruits and vegetables, bringing people a long aftertaste, with a long history, and a mellow and fragrant... The old Red Army Secretary Liu Wanshou will always live in the hearts of the people.
