However, in the face of the enemy's fierce counterattack, Mao Zejian, who was pregnant, decided to stay behind enemy lines to avoid dragging down the communist fighters. Unfortunately, she was arrested by the Kuomintang reactionaries after giving birth.
Because of her status as the first sister and her status as an important position in the Communist Party, the enemy took strict care of her, and even transferred her many times, escorting her from Leiyang to Hengyang, and then from Hengyang to Hengshan.

During the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, he went to Guangzhou, where he worked in the Political Department of the Whampoa Military Academy and served as secretary of the Political Department of the 4th Army of the Wuhan National Revolutionary Army.
Under his leadership, he took part in the struggle after the failure of the Kuomintang-Communist cooperation in August 1927.
In the spring of 1928, Comrade Mao Zetan was elected as a deputy to the Suichuan County Guerrilla People's Congress, and then accepted the appointment of Comrade ***, and successfully led the troops to join forces in the Jinggangshan Revolutionary Base Area.
After that, Comrade Mao Zetan participated in many battles and became an excellent wartime commander with rich combat experience and outstanding command ability. In January 1930, he was appointed director of the Political Department and political commissar of the Red 6th Army (later renamed the Red 3rd Army).

For his outstanding contributions, he was awarded a Red Star Medal of the Second Class. In October 1934, due to the failure of the fifth anti-encirclement and suppression, the main force of the Red Army decided to go on the Long March, and Comrade Mao Zetan, a young outstanding party member, took the initiative to ask Ying to stay in Jiangxi to continue the guerrilla war, and at the same time served as a member of the Communist Party of China's ** Soviet District Bureau, the commander of the Red Army's independent division, and the commander of the Fujian-Jiangxi Military Region.
Under the arduous fighting conditions, he persisted in fighting with a fearless spirit, and led the Red Army troops to fight in the lofty mountains and mountains on the border of Fujian and Jiangxi.
However, fate did not favor him, and on April 26, 1935, the troops led by Comrade Mao Zetan in the Ruijin Mountains were surrounded by the Kuomintang troops when they ran out of ammunition and food.
In order to protect the safety of the partisans, he died heroically at the age of 29.
Mao Chuxiong is Mao Zetan's son and nephew. He was born in 1927, and he was only 8 years old when Mao Zetan died. After Mao Zetan's death, Mao Chuxiong and his widow returned to their hometown in Shaoshan to avoid being pursued by Kuomintang agents.
During this time, ** lost contact with Mao Chuxiong. It wasn't until many years after the victory of the Long March, when ** stabilized in Yan'an, that he learned the news of Mao Chuxiong, and he was very happy.
Later, it was decided to let the 359 Brigade lead the 359 Brigade south to open up the southern revolutionary base area, and specifically instructed ** that after the troops entered Hunan, they would find a way to bring Mao Chuxiong back to Yan'an no matter what.
It was not until after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War in September 1945 that Mao Chuxiong followed the 359 Brigade north to Yan'an. Although Mao Chuxiong is young, he inherited the good qualities of the *** family, and after going north with the army, he did not rely on himself to be the nephew of *** and arrogant, but actively participated in the work of raising grain and collecting taxes in Yan'an.
Li Qingzhao once said: "Life is a hero, and death is also a ghost." ”
In October 1946, Mao Chuxiong was following the large army of our army to break through. The troops set off from Xuanhuadian, Hubei, and retreated to Xichuan County, Henan Province after more than 20 days of fighting, and then Mao Chuxiong broke away from the large army and followed the ** army to continue the westward expedition, planning to retreat to Yan'an with the ** troops.
But at this time, Yan'an had been heavily surrounded by Hu Zongnan's troops, looking at the Qinling Mountains that were close at hand, under the strict blockade of the Kuomintang troops, the brigade headquarters led by ** decided to let the troops pass through the blockade line in batches after making up.
Mao Chuxiong and several other comrades of our party pretended to be businessmen and stationed in Wenshanmiao Village in mid-August, and stayed in a local peasant's house overnight. Unfortunately, their identities were noticed by the local village chief, who reported their whereabouts to the Kuomintang reactionaries that night.
Early the next morning, after Mao Chuxiong and others said goodbye to the local villagers, they were caught up by the chief of security with a group of local ** as soon as they left the village. In order to curry favor with the Kuomintang masters, the security chief forcibly interrogated and searched them.
The chief thought that some of them must be Communists, so he tried to beat them into a trick. The group saw that Mao Chuxiong was thin and the youngest, and wanted to find an entry point in him.
Therefore, he dragged him out, surrounded him, and viciously questioned, "Tell me, are you a communist, and who is your leader here?" Are you going to go to your army, if you don't tell the truth, they will kill you first! ”
Mao Chuxiong, who had long had rich combat experience, responded calmly, "I think you misunderstood, I'm just a student and don't know anything." The chief interrogated the other comrades, but the others were also tight-lipped and did not leave any flaws.
Annoyed and angry, the chief of the security guard couldn't find a result when he asked back and forth, and he gave an order to his subordinates viciously: "Kill!" Kill me. In this way, Mao Chuxiong and other comrades were all murdered.
Mao Chuxiong was only 19 years old when he died, and he was still a hairy child. He is the youngest of the six martyrs of the *** family who sacrificed for the revolution.
The life of martyr Mao Anying was full of setbacks and sufferings, but his tenacity and perseverance are admirable. When he was young, he lived alone in Shanghai with his two younger brothers, living on the streets and experiencing the hardships of the world.
However, he did not give up, he worked as an apprentice, picked up rags, sold newspapers, pushed rickshaws, and witnessed the injury of his second brother Mao Anqing and the disappearance of his third brother Mao Anlong.
This childhood experience can be described as very sad. It wasn't until 1936 that the Mao Anying brothers met with *** in a hurry, and then they were sent to the Soviet Union.
After ten years of study in the Soviet Union, he returned to Yan'an in 1946. Although *** was seriously ill at the time, he still went to see his eldest son despite his illness, which shows his deep love for his eldest son.
After that, Mao Anying has been taught by ***, experienced the "Labor University" in China, and personally went to the grassroots level. However, the good times did not last long, on the afternoon of November 25, 1950, the U.S. military bombed the volunteer station, and Comrade Mao Anying died heroically in the process of rescuing documents.
** Family, a socialist family full of ideals and responsibilities, bravely sacrificed their lives for the cause of China's revolution, and their heroic deeds will forever be recorded in history. We deeply admire and cherish the memory of these comrades who sacrificed their lives heroically.
They are heroes in Chinese history, and their spirit will always inspire us to move forward.
