Yuan Guoping: The fearless choice of the revolutionary hero and the heavy price of the family

Mondo Culture Updated on 2024-01-29

Yuan Guoping, a brave senior cadre of the New Fourth Army, sacrificed his life for the country in the course of the revolution. Before the death of a revolutionary martyr, he said a thought-provoking sentence: "If there are 100 bullets, 99 of them should be fired at the enemy, and the last one should be kept for yourself, and you will never be taken prisoner." This open-minded sentence eventually became his declaration before his sacrifice.

Yuan Guoping was born in Shaodong County, Hunan, from a poor family. He was diligent and studious since childhood, and was admitted to the fourth phase of Whampoa in 1925, and at the same time as **, he became famous in the early days, especially after the Guangzhou Uprising. Becoming the party representative of the 4th Division of the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, Yuan Guoping's rank was even higher than **, and in 1930 he concurrently served as the director of the Political Department of the 3rd Army Corps of the Red Army, which was equivalent to the deputy political commissar. He participated in five anti-"encirclement and suppression" battles in the Soviet zone, and each time he performed with distinction.

During the Anti-Japanese War, the New Fourth Army was formed, and Yuan Guoping was transferred to the director of the Political Department. However, a turning point of fate came in the "Southern Anhui Incident". The New Fourth Army was ambushed by the Kuomintang army, the army commander Ye Ting was detained, and the deputy army commander Xiang Ying was betrayed by traitors and killed by the enemy. In this leaderless crisis, Yuan Guoping, as the director of the Political Department, stepped forward and organized the troops to break through, but unfortunately was injured in the battle.

After being wounded, Yuan Guoping knew the difficulty of breaking through, and more than 100 guards covered him to break through, but with the continuous attrition, only thirty or forty people remained. Yuan Guoping understood that if this continued, everyone would eventually die, and he decided not to drag down the soldiers anymore. During the break, he took advantage of everyone's lack of attention and took out a pistol to commit suicide at the age of 35.

The price of revolutionary sacrifice was not limited to Yuan Guoping himself. One of his two daughters died of illness, one was given away as a child bride, and his only son begged for food with his grandmother. Yuan Guoping's wife, Qiu Yihan, resolutely continued the revolutionary work after his death, and after the founding of the People's Republic of China, she became an official in the provincial party committee until her death in 1956 due to illness. At the time of Qiu Yihan's death, her supporters included revolutionary comrades such as General Song Shilun.

Yuan Guoping's family paid a heavy price for the revolutionary cause, but their perseverance and fearlessness are still a part of the revolutionary history that cannot be ignored. Their stories tell us that the choices of revolutionary heroes and the sacrifices of their families constitute an indelible historical picture.
