In September 1930, in Ji'an, Jiangxi, there was such a 15-year-old cattle herding baby who set up a "fire ox array" to break through the shackles of the White Army.
Mission completion guaranteed! A 15-year-old imp shouted in disguise. On this day, the little ghost who was only 15 years old received a particularly special task,"Zou Yan, I now give you an important task, you take the children's group to borrow all the cattle from the surrounding villages, we need to set up a formation now...
The little ghost's name is Zou Yan, who was only 15 years old, and when the troops attacked Ji'an, he dropped his woodcutter and happily followed the Chongxian Red Guards to attack Ji'an.
However, the siege was not smooth, this time it was the ninth siege, and the guns and artillery that kept going day and night could not capture this Ji'an city, Zou Yan, who rushed to attack the city, was too young to go to the battlefield, looking at the progress of the battle, Zou Yan was very itchy in his heart, he wanted to touch the barrel of the gun, wanted to go to the battlefield to fight the enemy, he didn't believe that he couldn't capture this small Ji'an city.
When receiving this special task, the young Zou Yan was very excited and thought: ".I'm finally able to go to the battlefield and kill the enemy!
Zou Yan, who successfully borrowed cattle from the surrounding villages, was ordered to gather all the cattle with his friends from the children's group, tie knives to the horns of the cows, tie firecrackers to the tails of the cows, and cover the cows with mud in order to protect the cows.
In the evening, after receiving the signal, Zou Yan and his friends excitedly lit the firecrackers on the tail of the ox, and the hundreds of cows that were stimulated rushed towards the enemy's barbed wire like a demon, and the oxen with sharp knives rampaged through the enemy camp, stirring up the enemy's scrampage.
With the blessing of the "Fire Bull Array", the Red Guards finally achieved long-lost results and captured the enemy's outlying fortifications.
Zou Yan, who is only 15 years old, played an important role in this "fire bull array", and since then, the reputation of Zou Yan, a 15-year-old cattle herding baby, has spread more and more in the barracks, and even *** has praised it:"This little cowherd baby, it's amazing, maybe he will be a big general after cultivating it well.
From the time Zou Yan put out the "Fire Bull Array", he was destined to have an extraordinary life.
During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, at first, because Zou Yan was too young, his superiors let him be responsible for communications and construction tasks, and he never had the opportunity to go to the front line until the War of Liberation, Zou Yan was appointed director of the Political Department of the Mudanjiang Military Region because of his excellent performance, and at this time, Zou Yan had the opportunity to go to the front line.
In the Mudanjiang area where Zou Yan served, there was a terrifying "commander", this "commander" was 8 years old and "had a lot of achievements", and then followed his relatives to the eastern part of the country and came to the Heilongjiang region.
Considering local security issues, Zou Yan, then director of the Political Department of the Peony Military Region, proposed: completely exterminate the mountain carving, ** bandits, and protect the safety of one party.
However, the process of suppressing bandits is not simple, the "mountain carving" is active in the deep mountains and old forests all the year round, and hiding in the deep mountains and old forests is a piece of cake for him, and many encirclement and suppression activities have been escaped by the cunning mountain eagles.
Capture the thief and capture the king first", Zou Yan suggested directly sending a reconnaissance team to secretly capture the mountain eagle, as long as the mountain eagle is captured, the rest of the little ones will be easy to do.
In the end, the investigation team led by Yang Zirong successfully captured the mountain eagle alive, and Zou Yan personally signed the verdict of the mountain carving at the public trial meeting.
In addition to successfully capturing the big bandit leader of the mountain carving, after the founding of New China, Zou Yan captured enemy spies in the northeast several times.
Three years after the founding of the People's Republic of China, with the formal establishment of the public security forces of the Northeast Military Region, Zou Yan was appointed deputy political commissar of the Military Region. In the second year of his tenure, Zou Yan made several great achievements, and achieved outstanding results in annihilating and capturing a total of 80 agents dispatched by sea and 33 agents dispatched by air.
Among Zou Yan's contributions, the most outstanding is the capture of American spies Donnell and Fixtu, which are roughly as follows:
Intelligence has been successfully obtained and aircraft can be dispatched for air assistance. A newspaper operator pretended to be calm and said a sentence that affected the security of the northeast region, and the newspaper operator's name was Zhu Songlin, and this sentence of "reporting peace" was not "reporting safety", but he was making meritorious service to atone for his crimes.
One night, the Northeast Public Security Department captured five airborne US spies, who thought it was just an incident of stealing intelligence, but during the interrogation of the spies, they learned that the mission of these five spies was to be the vanguard to investigate the situation in the northeast region in danger and find out the environment, and then contact the remaining US spies, and then create a major war caused by the enemy's spies.
In order to prevent the occurrence of the extraordinarily large war results, Zou Yan immediately made a decision and applied to use the enemy's radio station to trap the remaining spies of the other party. Soon, Zou Yan's application was approved, and the newspaper clerk Niu Songlin got lost, and then, the aforementioned scene appeared.
At 11 o'clock in the evening of November 29, 1952, the enemy plane appeared in the Lao Poria area of Changbai Mountain, at this time Zou Yan had already led people to lay a net, the enemy could not escape, not long after, under the strong firepower of our army, the plane crashed, the pilot was ** hit, and the spies Donnell and Fixtu who were flying on the plane were captured alive.
At Zou Yan's suggestion, the US conspiracy was successfully defeated, and the struggle of the Ministry of Public Security in Northeast China received the world's attention and was praised by the Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of Public Security.
During the period of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea, Zou Yan captured hostile agents with ill intentions again and again, "Everyone who comes is a guest, as long as it is a 'guest' who comes to the Northeast, then it must stay, even if I go to North Korea, I will invite the 'guest' over!" ”
In addition to being particularly good at catching spies, Zou Yan can still do the job of "making cotton clothes", which tests his skills.
Zou Yan's work on cotton clothes starts with the Red Army's Long March to cross the Dadu River.
In October 1934, Zou Yan, who was only 17 years old, followed the army on the 25,000-mile Long March.
In June 1935, after the Red Army rushed across the Dadu River, it had to continue through the Tibetan area in the middle and walk to the Jiajin Mountain. In order to prevent the cold, it is ordered to prepare cotton clothes to protect against the cold. However, the Tibetan area is extremely desolate, let alone cotton clothes, and even cotton cannot be found.
It's going to make everyone worried,"It can be done, but where is the cotton?
However, this move did not stump the clever Zou Yan," he saidThere is no cotton in the Tibetan area, and there is cow woolAfter thinking of this method, Zou Yan quietly took the other 12 "red imps" to the Tibetan people's homes to borrow wool."Fellow, we are the Red Army, this time we are passing through here, we must prepare some cotton clothes for the next road, but we can't buy cotton, we come to the house to borrow some broken wool, after that, we will definitely double it back to you.
I heard that the Red Army came to borrow wool, and the Tibetans took out the best wool at home, how dare Zou Yan take the things from the people's homes, these are all things that the Tibetans themselves are reluctant to use, no matter how the other party pushes, Zou Yan sternly refuses.
In the end, Zou Yan took the "red imps" to pick up the broken hair that the Tibetans did not want in the cattle and sheep pens of the Tibetans, kneaded the broken hairs together, plus the remaining strips of cloth and confetti in the team, and made up a little "cotton".
"Cotton" is there, how to make cotton clothes, it is difficult to stand Zou Yan.
Just when Zou Yan and the "little red ghosts" were at a loss, Sister Cai Chang next to her saw that they didn't go back to sleep, but sat here around the bonfire, thinking that they were too cold to sleep, so she stepped forward to ask them about the situation, ".Why don't you go to sleep, what are you doing sitting here? "Seeing Sister Cai Chang, Zou Yan's eyes lit up,"Sister Cai, do you know how to make cotton clothes? We've got all the materials, but we're not going to do it.
I said why don't you sleep, it turns out that you are making cotton clothes, bring things over, follow me to learn, and ensure that your cotton clothes look better than others! Sister Cai Chang laughed out loud and asked a few "red ghosts" to follow her to learn from a needle.
Look at it! Before sewing, you have to put the outer cloth in place, that is, you have to prepare two single clothes, and then sew these two clothes together according to the shape of the outer edge, and carefully see how I sew themSeveral "red imps" stretched their necks and watched Sister Cai sew the two single clothes together as if by magic, and then clumsily sewed stitches and needles. Several "red imps" complained,"It's much harder than fighting, and the hands don't seem to be listening.
Okay, okay, let's sew it all up, and then stuff the scraps of hair and cloth strips you prepared into it carefully, and lay them out.
According to the steps mentioned by Sister Cai Chang, Zou Yan and the "red ghosts" carefully stuffed the hard-won "cotton" into it.
After the "red imps" stuffed the "cotton" into it and sewed it, Sister Cai Chang sewed a square inside their "cotton clothes" one by oneYou 'cotton', if you wear it for a long time, it will be easy to pile it up piece by piece, so that after sewing it up, it will not run around!
After the "cotton clothes" were ready, it was already the second half of the night, and Zou Yan and a few "red ghosts" directly put on the finished "cotton clothes".Sister Cai, this cotton coat is really warm! The "red imps" finally have their own "cotton clothes", and they are really happy.
Even though this "cotton coat" is very thin, it saved Zou Yan's life after life on the way to climb the snowy mountain in the next step, and walked through mountain after mountain.
It is worth mentioning that Zou Yan, who participated in the revolution at the age of 13, climbed snow-capped mountains and crossed grasslands, and experienced a 25,000-mile Long March, is still radiant at the age of 106.
Zou Yan participated in the revolution in 1928, at that time, Zou Yan's hometown of Xingguo County, Jiangxi Province came to a team of "fighting the rich and helping the poor, and making decisions for the peasants", at that time, Zou Yan, who was only 13 years old, did not know what a revolution was, he only knew that this team was to help the people, and he also wanted to do things for the people.
After that, Zou Yan joined the children's regiment in his hometown, sentry for the Red Army every day, and actively participated in the task of breaking superstition. When he was a few years older, Zou Yan joined the Young Pioneers, and at this time Zou Yan began to fight with the guerrillas.
It wasn't until 1930 that Zou Yan was finally able to join the Red Army, and he was arranged to study at the ** Military and Political School, Xi it was in this school that Zou Yan met *** for the first time
One day, Zou Yan, as before, practiced with his comrades next to the field, and at this time, together with the two guards, there was also *** Everyone applauded excitedly to welcome *** Under the strong request of everyone, ** made a speech, all of which revolved around one word, "points".
** Earnestly explained to everyone why he wanted to fight the local tyrants and divide the land, and talked about what real socialism is and the true meaning of revolution.
**'s words strengthened Zou Yan's heart,".After that, no matter what happens, be sure to follow the party!
Even after retiring in 1988, when receiving letters from students about the history of the party and ideals and beliefs, Zou Yan would personally write a letter to answer, according to statistics, General Zou Yan wrote nearly 100 letters, and the number of words accumulated was as many as tens of thousands of words.
In a family in Shenyang, Liaoning Province, there is a 106-year-old man who likes to read books and newspapers, practices calligraphy from time to time, and has a 106-year-old old man, who always cares about national affairs.
This 106-year-old old man is General Zou Yan, who participated in the revolution at the age of 13 and made miraculous achievements at the age of 15, as one of the 1614 founding generals, for the country and the people, the 106-year-old founding major general Zou Yan is a "living monument".
