1935 at the end of March, what was the center of guerrilla warfare?

1934 10 After the Long March of the Red Army, the main force of the Central Committee, in order to strengthen the armed struggle in the Jiangxi-Guangdong Border Region, the Central Branch and the Gannan Provincial Party Committee decided to set up a special committee and a military sub-division in the Jiangxi-Guangdong Border Region. 165438+1At the beginning of October, Li Letian, secretary of the Special Committee, led more than 700 people from the Special Committee and a battalion of the Red Army to You Shan to open up guerrilla zones.

From late February to early March, the 1935 Red Army, which was besieged in the southern mountainous area of the capital, set out to break through one after another according to the deployment of the Central Branch, preparing for guerrilla warfare around the Central Soviet Area.

On March 9, Chen Yi and others led the 70th regiment of the 24th Red Division to finally leave the Central Soviet Area. On the way, Chen Yi happened to meet Zeng Jicai, the former secretary of Xinfeng County Committee. When Chen Yi set up the Red 22 Army in Gannan, Zeng Jicai was the secretary of the rhinoceros district committee in Xinfeng county. As a local, I am very familiar with the topography of Xinfeng, Dayu and Nanxiong. Chen Yi and others decided to change the original plan of going to Fujian and break through the border region of Jiangxi and Guangdong.

That night, Chen Yi and other guards put on the clothes of ordinary people, and headed for You Shan under the guidance of Zeng Jicai. They spent the Empress Dowager in Ganxian County and secretly crossed Taojiang River in Xinfeng County. On a dark night, they came to Niujing, Xinfeng County, Zeng Jicai's hometown. After many difficulties and twists and turns, finally, under the arrangement of the underground party, he arrived in You Shan, the center of the guerrilla zone on the border between Jiangxi and Guangdong, in early April to meet Li Letian and Yang Shangkui.

Subsequently, the troops of the Gannan Military Region led by Cai Huiwen and Chen Pixian also went to You Shan, and the troops stationed in You Shan, together with the local guerrillas, totaled more than 400 people/kloc-0.

"The people's support will never be forgotten."

In the mountains and cliffs, Chen Yi led guerrillas to walk in the forest during the day and stay in caves at night in the heat and cold. With the help of the people in Youshan area, we overcame unimaginable difficulties and smashed the enemy's plot by using various complex terrain.

The long-term blockade of the Guangdong army made the life of the guerrillas in a very difficult situation. "We live like wild animals." 1944, Chen Yi introduced the guerrilla warfare in the south to Xie Weisi, a diplomat of the American observation group, in Yan 'an.

As he described in "Guerrilla Talk in Gannan": It's noon now. Hungry food is like drums. The food has been blocked for three months. There is enough rice, wild vegetables and boiling water in the bag ... In summer, I eat Yangmeidong to peel bamboo shoots, hunt wild boar all over the mountain and catch snakes for three nights. ...

The crazier the enemy is, the more people try to support the guerrillas. The enemy closed the mountain and sealed the pit, immigrated into the village, and the masses could not contact the guerrillas, so they were in a hurry. They took advantage of the opening day of the first and fifteenth day to collect firewood on the mountain, brought some food, salt, salted fish, newspapers and materials, and threw them around the mountains for the guerrillas to pick up.

In the village near the mountain, when the enemy comes to search the mountain and search the village, the masses make signals in the mountain, outside the village, on the wall, on the treetops, by the window and other places. Seeing these secret signals, the guerrillas avoided them in time.

With the help of You Shan (hometown, Jiangxi dialect), Chen Yi also built the Shangle Tower in You Shan as the hub of the special traffic station, using many materials and documents of the Special Committee and guerrillas, military and political textbooks and the Red Army Soldiers' Literacy Textbook compiled by Xiang Ying and Chen Yi.

They are all printed, handed over or forwarded at the joint of Shangle Tower. When the guerrillas moved, they hid guns, ammunition, documents and mimeographed equipment in the tower wall or buried them under the tower. Shangle Tower became the lifeline of the special committee and guerrillas in the Jiangxi-Guangdong border region.

Chen Yi sighed in "Guerrilla Talk in Gannan": "Rely on the people, and support will never be forgotten. He is a reborn parent, and I am an excellent soldier. The revolution is strong and powerful. "
