"Nanhu"Hu Yun, with"Beizhao"Zhao Yiman is known as a revolutionary heroine, although she is seven years older than Zhao Yiman, but she is also deeply imprinted in people's hearts with her resolute and unyielding image, although few people know it now, but her deeds are also worthy of being remembered forever.
Hu Yun, a native of Tianyue Township, Pingjiang County, Hunan, was born in 1898. Her nickname, "Swordsman", reflects her unusual and unique interests. Since she was a child, she has hated the role of a weak woman, has a bold personality, loves to fight unevenly, often fights with boys, and is a complete "hot girl".
Although she likes to read "Water Margin", "Saying Yue" and so on, she doesn't like the Four Books and Five Classics, Tang and Song poems. On the contrary, she can recite "Mulan Ci" upside down, and often sing it in the minor key of Pingjiang lanterns.
Although Hu Yun did not want to be a boudoir girl, at the age of 19, she still married the son of a large landowner surnamed Li in Hongqiao Township, Pingjiang, under the arrangement of her parents. When she got married, she chose the Four Rice Cages as a dowry instead of the traditional valuables.
Although her husband's family is the richest man in the local area, Hu Yun feels that this is not the life she wants. What she wants is freedom and independence, a life where she can pursue her dreams.
As a result, she began to take action to change her life.
In the spring of 1924, Hu Yun was admitted to a girls' school in Pingjiang and returned to the school days from the identity of a "young grandmother". Here, she came into contact with a number of Communist Party teachers and progressive publications, and her thinking and behavior underwent significant changes.
She took the lead in cutting her hair short, encouraged women to put their feet down, participated in parades, gave speeches on stage in support of the Japanese invaders, boycotted Japanese kerosene, and was wounded and fell into the water in the battle against the Hubei army stationed in the county.
Soon, she became a pioneer among the progressive students in Pingjiang, and joined the Chinese Communist Party at the end of 1925. In August 1926, Hu Yun returned to his hometown in accordance with the instructions of his superiors and mobilized the masses to raise money and food for the independent regiment of the Northern Expeditionary Army led by Ye Ting.
She personally led the way for the Northern Expeditionary Army, and also did propaganda work for the Independent Regiment, helping the troops successfully conquer Tianyue Pass and Hesheng Bridge, and successfully go north.
Hu Yun, under the recommendation of the county party committee, was successfully admitted to the girls' team of Wuhan National Military and Political School, and got to know many female Communist Party members from all over the world, including Li Kuntai from Yibin, Sichuan, who later became Zhao Yiman.
Hu Yun and Zhao Yiman have strikingly similar personalities, they are both pungent, straightforward, and capable. The two soon became inseparable friends, studying and training together, and having the happiest time of their lives.
With the reorganization of the Wuhan Military Academy and the disbandment of the girls' team, Hu Yun returned to his hometown to support the Autumn Harvest Riot. After returning to her in-law's house, she was still the third young grandmother of the Li family, but her actual identity was the director of the Beixiang Riot Committee of the Communist Party of China.
Together with the progressives, she mobilized the masses to fight the local tyrants and divide the property. Later, Hu Yun used a clever strategy to make his father-in-law, who was avoiding trouble outside, a big wrongdoer, and took the initiative to pay for a batch of *** for the riot team, thinking that this capable daughter-in-law was to protect the family property.
However, Hu Yun's feat was not just to protect the family property, she also fought landlords everywhere, and even pointed the finger at her father-in-law. At the mass meeting criticizing the local tyrants and inferior gentry, Hu Yun publicly announced her divorce from her husband, and also divided the property of her husband's family and distributed all the grain to the peasants.
This move shocked the entire mountain township and became a strange news that alarmed the mountain township. After hearing the news, the Li father and son, who were avoiding trouble, were so angry that they secretly picked up the son born to Hu Yun.
Hu Yun, a former young grandmother, now leads the team up the mountain to fight guerrillas. She and Xu Zijun fought bravely in the Mufu Mountains, mobilized the masses, fought against local tyrants, divided the land, and thwarted the enemy's "encirclement and suppression" many times.
People affectionately call their troops the "Hu Yun Army". After the defeat of Pingjiang's famous "February Storm", the reactionary authorities raised the slogans of "Pingjiang is washed in blood" and "the land must be turned over and the people must be changed."
In the face of the enemy's frenzied suppression, the county party committee suffered serious damage, and a group of responsible persons were killed. However, Hu Yun was not intimidated by the White Terror. She persisted in leading the guerrillas in various districts of Beixiang to find their lost comrades, and eventually restored the Pingjiang County Party Committee of the Communist Party of China, and she was elected secretary of the county party committee, the first female county party secretary in the history of the Pingjiang revolution.
In the past, the young grandmother now has a shell gun in her waist, a horse lantern in her hand, and a backpack on her shoulder, climbing mountains and mountains, drilling caves, sleeping in shacks, and often feeding her hunger with wild vegetables.
They were undaunted by the enemies who came to "encircle and suppress" them. This is Hu Yun, a heroine who does not let her eyebrows go.
Hu Yun was a revolutionary fighter who led the guerrilla brigade in Liuyang, Pingjiang and other places, and won major victories. The guerrillas she led grew in strength and morale was high.
In July 1928, the Pingjiang County Soviet was established, Hu Yun was elected as the chairman of the county, and served as the commander-in-chief of the county guerrilla command, successfully leading the team to fight many battles, dealing a heavy blow to the Kuomintang army and the landlord army.
Even while she was pregnant, she was personally on the battlefield to command, repelling 4 enemy charges. At the height of the battle, she gave birth to a son, but she did not stop the fight, but directed the troops to continue to crush the enemy.
In that special historical period, Hu Yun won people's admiration for his bravery and wisdom. ** and Hu Yun's actions cooperated with each other, and the momentum was huge, which made the "Qingxiang Gazette" amazed.
**I also praised Hu Yun, calling her "a real heroine among women, a rare female general". He Changgong's recollections proved that Hu Yun's guerrilla warfare skills were superb, and even terrified the enemies in Pingjiang.
In the spring of 1931, the Northern Jiangxi Independent Regiment and the guerrillas in Xiushui, Tonggu and other counties merged to form the Red Eighth Division. Soon after, Hu Yun was appointed commander of the Eighth Red Division, becoming the first female division commander in the history of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army.
In July of the same year, the Hunan-Hubei-Jiangxi Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China was established in Xiushuishan, and Hu Yun served as a member of the Provincial Party Committee and Minister of Women. However, it is sad that under the influence of Wang Ming's "leftist" line, the heroine was framed as a member of the "AB regiment" and secretly killed in early 1934 at the age of 36.
However, justice will eventually prevail, and in 1945, at the Seventh National Congress of the Communist Party of China, Hu Yun was able to rehabilitate Zhaoxue and was posthumously recognized as a revolutionary martyr.
