Zhu Qijie——Director of Sixian Women's Rescue Society
Zhu Qijie (1919-1940), also known as Zhu Qizhe and Zhu Bisha. He was born into a landlord family in Zhunandang, Lianshui County in 1919. His family's ancestral rules stipulated that neither adults nor children should neglect tenants, and the land rent was lower than that of other landlords. His father, Zhu Xianhu, was a scholar in the late Qing Dynasty. Zhu Qijie has been handsome and smart since he was a child. When she was studying in the county girls' elementary school, Huaiyin Normal University and Jinling Women's University high school class, she was excellent in both character and study and was versatile. She had a good voice and sang popular progressive songs at the time, such as "Yu Guang Song", "La Marseillaise", "Graduation Song", etc., which was sweet and contagious. Her teachers and classmates praised her as a "Lianshui singer" ".
Zhu Qijie's second brother Zhu Qiyu was exposed to Marxist-Leninist works and other progressive books and periodicals when he was studying at Qingdao University. He was expelled in 1935 for actively participating in the "December 9th" movement. After the outbreak of the national war of resistance against Japan, Zhu Qiyu engaged in anti-Japanese and national salvation activities in his hometown, and later joined the Eighth Route Army. Zhu Qijie's cousin Zhu Qixun served as the battalion commander of the second battalion of the third regiment of the New Fourth Army's Independent Brigade. He died in the battle of Suqian Luji in the summer of 1942. There were many other brothers, sisters and nephews in his clan who participated in the revolution. Zhu Qijie lived and grew up in such a family environment.
After going to school in Nanjing, Zhu Qijie read Gorky 's " Mother ", Sholokhov's " The Quiet Don River ", After Xiao Jun's " Rural in August" and some of Lu Xun's works, his thinking progressed rapidly. He often discussed the issue of anti-Japanese and national salvation with his classmates. During the discussion, he often praised Qiu Jin's "autumn wind and autumn rain are sad and sad". The poem expresses her worries about state affairs. After the national anti-Japanese war broke out in 1937, universities and middle schools in Nanjing moved westward one after another. Among the female students, some advocated going to the anti-Japanese front line, while others advocated continuing their studies in the rear. Zhu Qijie discussed with his classmate Zhang Hongzhi and decided to return to his hometown, Lianshui, to promote anti-Japanese and national salvation.
In the spring of 1938, Zhu Qijie and her brothers launched anti-Japanese propaganda activities centered on their hometown of Zhunandang. Under their influence, young farmers around them joined the anti-Japanese armed forces and engaged in revolutionary work.
In June 1939, the Eighth Regiment of the Longhai South Advance Detachment of the Eighth Route Army was established in Lianshui. Zhu Qijie participated in the propaganda team of the Eighth Regiment and joined the Communist Party of China. Under the leadership of the party organization, Zhu Qijie was not afraid of hardship or fatigue, and followed the Eighth Regiment around, working day and night. Among the team members, she plays an exemplary role in every aspect. During the march, Zhu Qijie always ran forward and backward, helping this person carry his bag and that person carrying his backpack, loving and caring for his comrades. No matter which village she went to, during meals, she would always arrange for non-party members to go to the homes of rich families who had dried wheat kernel rice or steamed buns, while she and other party members went to the homes of poor people who had bean cakes or potatoes boiled in sorghum soup. She always said cheerfully: "Boil the potatoes into a thin paste and taste the suffering of the poor." Her exemplary actions touched many comrades.
After the experience of hard life, Zhu Qijie's thoughts have undergone fundamental changes, his class consciousness has been greatly improved, and he has developed deep feelings for the poor peasants. Once, the propaganda team performed " Put down your whip ". She played the role of a little girl who was bullied by landlords. She was so sincere that the grandmothers, sisters-in-law, and little girls in the audience all shed tears of sympathy for her. As soon as the play ended, an elderly woman ran over, took Zhu Qijie's hand and said, "My daughter, you did such a good job in the play!" Then you dragged me to mop the floor and invited Zhu Qijie to their home for dinner.
At the end of October 1939, the organization sent Zhu Qijie to study at the Northeast Anhui Party School. After completing her studies, she was assigned to be the director of the Women's Rescue Society in Si County, Taiwan, and changed her name to Zhu Bisha. In May 1940, Zhu Qijie led a work team to Yuanwei, Si County to establish grassroots political power and carry out rent reduction and interest rate reduction. Yuan Wei's bully landlord Yuan Lin secretly reported to the Japanese army in Si County that the Japanese army sent the traitor Wang Zhongtao to lead a team and suddenly surrounded Yuan Wei. Zhu Qijie was presiding over a meeting at the time. When he discovered the enemy's situation, it was too late to retreat. Zhu Qijie and his teammates fell into the enemy's hands.
"Where are your senior cadres?" the Japanese army captain asked fiercely.
Zhu Qijie and his teammates held their heads high and did not answer.
"Which one of you is a member of the Communist Party?"
"I don't know!" Zhu Qijie took the lead and said firmly.
"Some of them will be shot!" the Japanese army captain roared.
"The Chinese people are not afraid of death!"
When the Japanese army couldn't find any clues, they beat them with wooden sticks and whips. Zhu Qijie and his teammates were beaten black and blue, but the enemy still got a stern scolding: "The blood debt owed by you bandits must be repaid one day! The bones of the Chinese people are hard!" Zhu Qijie and his teammates They never said a word to the enemy. The traitor Wang Zhongtao murmured a few words to the Japanese army captain, and several male comrades were taken away, leaving only Zhu Qijie and another female comrade. Wang Zhongtao said to them: "How about this? You write a confession and promise not to work for the Communist Party in the future, and then we let you go." Zhu Qijie and the female comrade struggled to stand up and wrote "Down with Japanese Imperialism" ! Down with the traitors! Long live the Communist Party of China!" The inhumane enemy chopped off their fingers with a knife, but Zhu Qijie kept yelling. In the end, Zhu Qijie and others died heroically.
In April 1953, the Lianshui County Government built a monument to the martyrs Zhu Qixun and Zhu Qijie, brother and sister, in the Chengji Martyrs Cemetery, renamed Xiaoyang River Jiexun River, and named the martyrs' hometowns Jiexun Township and Jiexun Village. In April 1995, the Chengji Town Government in Lianshui County rebuilt the monument to the martyrs Zhu Qixun and Zhu Qijie.
