On July 16, 1941, the genius was in a daze. A gunshot suddenly sounded outside Hongqi Village, Zhongzhuang Town. The heart-pounding gunshots broke the tranquility of the entire village and woke Zeng Weihong, the captain of the Wanfeng Township guerrillas who stayed in the village that night.
Zeng Weihong got up, quickly got up and ran to the yard with a gun. He listened to the direction of the gunshot, which should be a secret whistle set on the mattress outside the village.
Enemies are coming!
And from the messy gunshots, it can be judged that there are still quite a few enemies this time.
Zeng Weihong left the hospital and saw that the militia captain Zeng Rusheng was leading the militia in the village and preparing to rush outside the village.
Zeng Weihong hurriedly called Zeng Rusheng:
"There are many enemies this time. If the villagers cannot retreat in time, they will definitely have bad things. I will lead people out to block the enemy. You are familiar with the neighbors, so stay and take the villagers and move quickly."
Compared to ambushing and blocking the enemy, Zeng Rusheng really believes that he is not as good as Zeng Weihong. Therefore, after listening to the other party's advice, he had no time to think about it, so he immediately assigned eleven militia members and handed them over to Zeng Weihong, while he led the other militias and turned back to the village, preparing to lead and cover to organize the villagers to transfer as soon as possible.
How many years later, Zeng Rusheng mentioned this past again and was still sighing:
"If I insisted on going that time, Lao Zeng might not have sacrificed."
Zeng Weihong led the eleven militias to the outside of the village.
"Captain Zeng, I'm afraid there are many enemies, can we stop it?" On the way of
, a team member asked hesitantly. After all, their team's weapons and equipment are very backward.
The reality of the enemy being too many and we are behind, making this militia team rarely face head-on duels with the enemy on weekdays.
"If the enemy enters the village now, the people in front of you will suffer. You didn't see the sweep in Gangxi Township, how many households have been eliminated?"
Zeng Weihong waved his hand and asked everyone to follow. He sighed while walking: "We are going. We may not be able to fight, but at least we can hold the enemy back and leave everyone some time to escape."
At that time, the villagers in the entire village had already received news of the enemy approaching. Everyone fled in panic in the north direction of the village. Only these dozen people walked silently against the current.
When we arrived near the entrance of the village, the gunshots had stopped. Everyone knew very well that the secret whistle ambushed on the post should have died.
Under Zeng Weihong's leadership, the crowd began to set up defenses through the ravines, trees and soil piles at the entrance of the village. Not long after, a large number of Japanese and puppet soldiers appeared in front of everyone.
More than a hundred Japanese and puppet troops marched quickly along the dirt road in front of the village and towards the village. When they walked to the entrance of the village, they were immediately violently blocked by Zeng Weihong and others.
Twelve people fought against more than a hundred well-equipped Japanese and puppet soldiers. The final result of this battle was really not too suspense.
The villagers who were hiding from the village, listened to the shrill gunshots at the entrance of the village behind them, and gradually calmed down, and tears could not help but shed in everyone's eyes.
A few days later, Zeng Rusheng led several people to return to the entrance of the village that blocked the enemy on the same day, at the risk of being discovered by the enemy. The bodies of the martyrs fell on the gullies, haystacks, and roads, making the people who buried their bodies cry.
However, when everyone counted the bodies that day, they suddenly found that the body of the guerrilla captain Zeng Weihong was missing.
"If you want to see someone alive, if you want to see the corpse when you die, you must find Captain Zeng." Zeng Rusheng immediately ordered the nearby militia to launch a search and be sure to find Captain Zeng Weihong.
Zeng Rusheng had a glimmer of hope at that time, thinking that since Zeng Weihong's body was not found at the scene, it was not ruled out that the other party was still alive. Zeng Weihong finally broke out from the rain of bullets, and maybe it was possible.
However, when everyone searched the entire Wanfeng Township without success, and later expanded the search to Huduo Town, a local "white skin and red heart" landlord quietly told Zeng Rusheng that he knew Zeng Weihong's whereabouts.
"That afternoon, the Japanese escorted a wounded person by this place. I looked at Captain Zeng. When they walked to the south river in Yangjiazhuang, Captain Zeng wanted to jump into the river and escape, but was shot and killed by the Japanese in the river." The landlord pointed to the direction of the river, crying while talking.
Zeng Rusheng and several villagers with good water properties followed the guidance of the landlord and came to the small river in the south of Yangjiazhuang. The river was surging, but no trace of it was found.
Zeng Rusheng and others then jumped into the river and dived to the bottom of the river to search carefully. For the first time, Zeng Weihong's body was not found.
Then, the exhausted people swam ashore, rested for a while, and then jumped into the river again.
"I was silently thinking in my heart, Lao Zeng, I'm here to pick you up, you'll meet me this time." After liberation, Zeng Rusheng couldn't help but sigh when talking about this past. "This time, I dived deeper and groped under the river beach for a long time, and finally grabbed his arm. Then I quickly pulled him out of the water."
That night, Zeng Rusheng and several militiamen took advantage of the darkness to place Zeng Weihong's body and other team members' bodies in a boat. Then, under the cover of the night, everyone transported the body of the ship to the district government for proper burial.
This historical past is only recorded in the Jianhu County Chronicle:
In the summer of 1941, during the Japanese invaders' raid, 12 militiamen including Zeng Weihong of Wanfeng Township, all died while blocking the enemy.
However, when we look closely, this fragment that disappeared in the long river of history, we can't help but be moved.
The history of the War of Resistance Against Japan back then was the history of the War of Resistance Against Japan of the entire nation. Its victory was most inseparable from the power of the grassroots and the people. Although these people were silent and silent after death, they used their lives to fight for the nation, and changed the final direction of history with their courage and indomitableness.
In those years of war, there were countless grassroots heroes. They rose up in the dark, but eventually disappeared into the long river of history. Although these stories hidden in the long river of history are little known, they are still an indispensable part of the magnificent picture of people's war back then.
