Around May 1931, when the situation of the revolution was quite grim in all aspects, in order to effectively deal with this situation, the party organization decided to appoint a person to the border areas of Guangdong and Jiangxi to serve as the political commissar of the Red Seventh Army. In addition, the party organization also specially explained that in order to ensure the safety of this operation, this person could not go directly to the Guangdong and Jiangxi border areas, but had to make a detour from Hong Kong.
When this person first arrived in Hong Kong, the revolutionary situation deteriorated further, and then in order to strengthen the armed struggle in northern Guangdong, Hainan Island, and other regions, the party organization temporarily revised the order to let this person stay in Hong Kong and serve as secretary of the Guangdong Provincial Military Commission of the Communist Party of China.
Around July, this man's wife, Zhao Juntao, also arrived in Hong Kong to serve as secretary of the Central Military Commission. In this way, in the war-torn era at that time, the husband and wife, who had gathered less and separated more, were finally reunited in Hong Kong.
However, the joy of couples reuniting did not last long enough. Soon after, he was appointed by the party organization to join the great team that opened up the guerrilla war in Hainan, and in early July, he officially boarded a ship bound for Haikou. When standing on the shore and waving goodbye to her husband,Zhao JuntaoWith red eyes, at that moment, she was seriously looking forward to each other's next reunion.
However, who could have predicted what would happen after that? How could Zhao Juntao, who was not yet 30 years old at the time, know that this time the difference turned out to be a parting of life and death between the two.
Having said all this, who is this person who was appointed as the secretary of the Guangdong Provincial Military Commission of the Communist Party of China in danger, this person who left Hong Kong by boat and never came back, who is he? Also, after arriving in Haikou, what happened to him?
He's just what he was called."A strong warrior of the peopleAn outstanding proletarian revolutionary who spilled blood in Qiongzhou in 1931Lee Seok-hoon
After Li Shuoxun left Hong Kong by boat, Zhao Juntao never got any news about her husband, and in her anxiety, she often went to Ke Lin, an underground worker of our party, to inquire about the situation.
Soon after, Ke Lin and several other comrades were the first to receive Li Shuoxun's suicide note, and after some research and discussion, Ke Lin informed Zhang Hanfu, then secretary of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee of the Communist Party of China, and then Ke Lin strongly asked the party organization to appoint a special person to Hainan to prepare to rescue Li Shuoxun.
Since a special person has been appointed to go to Hainan to rescue, why is there still no result in the end? What kind of bad situation did Lee Seok-hoon encounter at that time that was difficult to get out of? Friends, don't worry, please keep reading.
On February 23, 1903, Li Shuoxun was born in Gao County, Sichuan. Lee Seok-hoon was very smart at a young age, he made his life ambition clear very early, and Lee Seok-hoon wanted to do a big career more than being a nerd who could only read. At that time, he always put a sentence on his lips, and Li Shuoxun often said: ".I don't want to be a scholar, I want to be a successful careerist.
When he was 15 years old, Li Shuoxun was admitted to the county middle school, and soon after, out of his inner yearning for a new culture and a new world, Li Shuoxun and his friend Yang Hansheng were transferred to Chengdu Provincial No. 1 Middle School.
The Provincial No. 1 Middle School was indeed more influenced by the new trend of thought, and the reading atmosphere here was very good, and it was in this general environment that Li Shuoxun began to read a series of books on Marxism extensively. In the process of reading, Li Shuoxun's inner thoughts are gradually changing, and a seed of "yearning for communism" slowly takes root and sprouts in his heart.
In the autumn of that year, in accordance with the "Constitution of the Socialist Youth League" published in the "New Youth", Li Shuoxun, Liu Rongchao, Yang Hansheng and others united as one, and finally formally established the Chengdu Socialist Youth League in Wangjianglou, Chengdu.
Subsequently, Li Shuoxun and others organized and launched a struggle to expel the warlord lackey Yan Gongyin, who was the principal of the provincial No. 1 middle school at the time. The struggle also had another purpose, which was to gain independence from the funding of education. The momentum of the struggle was spectacular, and eventually attracted the attention of the Sichuan warlords, who subsequently issued a wanted order. That's it, against Lee Seok-hoon andYang Hanshengand the wanted of others officially began. After that, the two took a small boat to avoid the checkpoints and finally left Chengdu.
At the end of 1922, Li Shuoxun entered Hongda College in Beijing, and a year later, he continued his studies at Shanghai University, a joint venture between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. It was here that Li Shuoxun finally officially threw himself into the embrace of Marxism.
During this time, Li Shuoxun entered the classrooms of many famous communists, including Qu Qiubai and Zhang Tailei. In May 1924, Li Shuoxun honorably joined the Communist Party of China and officially began his career as a professional revolutionary. After this, Lee Seok-hoon grew up very quickly, and he soon became the leader of the early youth movement of our party.
In the spring of 1925, with the help of his brother Zhao Shiyan and sister Zhao Shilan, Zhao Juntao left Beijing Women's Normal University and entered the Department of Sociology of Shanghai University.
During his studies, Zhao Juntao had extensive contact with the early revolutionaries of our partyDeng Zhongxiaand Yun (yùnDai Ying and other comrades. Under the profound influence of these people, Zhao Juntao gradually established in his heart a firm ideal and belief in fighting for the communist cause all his life. Around 1926, Zhao Juntao honorably joined the Communist Party of China and became a full member of the Communist Party of China.
During the period when Li Shuoxun and Zhao Juntao were studying together in the Department of Sociology of Shanghai University, along with the vigorous revolutionary movements one after another, the two of them gradually gained a deeper understanding of each other, and over time, they developed a feeling that surpassed that of ordinary classmates and revolutionary comrades.
During the period when he was in charge of editing the weekly magazine "The Chinese Student", he published a series of articles exposing the evil deeds of imperialism and feudal warlords in the "Chinese Student".
Taking the "Chinese Student" weekly as the front, Li Shuoxun finally blew some of the progressive ideas he had learned and the various advanced trends of thought that were widely popular in society at that time like a spring breeze to the ears of the broad masses of the people, and all of them flowed into the hearts of the masses like a stream.
With Li Shuoxun's rigorous and serious guidance and help, Zhao Juntao also resolutely threw himself into the vigorous revolutionary movement. Through a series of activities such as participating in social surveys, organizing women's movements, and organizing and establishing night schools, Zhao Juntao's inner thoughts and external ability to carry out work have made great progress.
In the end, Li Shuoxun and Zhao Juntao's common ideals and beliefs, as well as their common revolutionary pursuits, prompted them to support each other and grow together in the process of carrying out their work, and the two became closer and closer.
Finally, in August 1926, after withstanding the baptism and experience of the revolutionary torrent, Li Shuoxun and Zhao Juntao came together and became revolutionary partners.
Since then, no matter what setbacks and difficulties they encountered, the two have always never given up and supported each other, and they have always regarded the cause of the party and the people as the highest goal.
In the fifth (sàDuring the period when the movement broke out, Li Shuoxun enthusiastically participated in the anti-imperialist patriotic movement on the streets of Shanghai, and after carrying out a series of work, Li Shuoxun's outstanding organizational and propaganda talents were gradually discovered by those around him. Subsequently, after the unanimous election of the people around him, Li Shuoxun served as the representative of the Shanghai Student Federation and the president of the All-China Student Federation. Soon after, Li Shuoxun was elected chairman of the Shanghai Anti-Imperialist League.
In October 1926, according to the arrangement of the party organization, Li Shuoxun went to the Hubei Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China to serve as the secretary of the Wuchang County Party Committee and the head of the Organization Department of the Wuchang Prefectural Party Committee. Subsequently, Li Shuoxun served as secretary of the Hubei Provincial Committee of the Communist Youth League.
Soon after, the party organization appointed Li Shuoxun to serve as the director of the political department of the 25th Division of the 4th Army of the National Revolutionary Army, and the deputy division commander of this team at that time was Ye Ting.
In the spring of 1927, the Wuhan National** issued an order to continue the Northern Expedition, and the 25th Division served as the advance force. During this time, Li Shuoxun and Ye Ting cooperated very smoothly, and they led their troops to various parts of Henan, where they fought many fierce battles with the warlord forces and won major victories.
Subsequently, Chiang Kai-shek staged a counter-revolutionary coup d'état in Shanghai. In order to deal with this unexpected situation, the Wuhan National** ordered the 25th Division to return to Wuhan as soon as possible, march east against Chiang, and participate in the suppression of Xia Douyin's rebellion.
**Arrived in Nanchang on the eve of the Nanchang Uprising, after which, he confessed to the former secretary of the enemy military committee at that time***zhēnIt is necessary to send people to the Mahuiling area between Jiujiang and Nanchang as soon as possible, pull the 25th Division of the 4th Army to Nanchang, and then participate in the uprising together.
At that time, after the 25th Division entered Jiujiang, the division headquarters and the division's political department were stationed together in Huanglaomen Village near Huanglaomen Station.
Subsequently, according to the instructions of ***, he went to the 25th Division to have secret talks with Li Shuoxun, Zhou Shidi and other comrades, and carried out a series of preparations before the uprising in full swing.
On August 1, in accordance with the instructions of our party, Li Shuoxun took advantage of the time to take a nap, and in the name of field exercises, he successfully threw off the small number of weapons in the hands of division commander Li Hanxun, and led all the 73rd Regiment of the 25th Division, three battalions of the 75th Regiment, and a heavy machine gun company of the 74th Regiment to Nanchang to participate in the uprising. On the way to Nanchang led by Li Shuoxun, there was also a battle, but such a small difficulty could not stop Li Shuoxun and his party from participating in the determination of the uprising.
At around 1 o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, Li Shuoxun was leading the rebel troops to march to De'an, and the 1st Battalion of the 73rd Regiment served as the rearguard. When the rebel troops marched to the north of De'an Station, a train came not far away, and Zhang Fakui, Li Hansoul and others stood on the train with their own guards.
Taking advantage of the fact that these people were not ready for battle, the soldiers of the 1st Battalion of the 73rd Regiment immediately began to shoot, and Zhang Fakui, Li Hansoul and others were caught off guard, and in the end, those people had to flee with urine.
In addition, all the nearly 600 men of the Train Guards Battalion at that time surrendered their guns, and some of the soldiers and junior officers abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and finally joined the mighty rebel army.
At dawn on August 2, Li Shuoxun finally led the rebel troops to Nanchang. Next, the rebel force was reorganizedZhou ShidiAs the division commander, Li Shuoxun served as the party representative.
After the reorganization of the unit was completed, in order to strengthen the political work of this unit, Li Shuoxun immediately organized and convened a meeting of the party committee of the 25th Division of the Communist Party of China. At this meeting, he and Zhou Shidi, You Buying (yíngand other comrades conscientiously studied the problems in three aspects, namely, political education, discipline education, and the party's ideological and organizational building in the troops.
After this meeting, a number of grassroots party organizations were set up in the troops.
After the victory of the Nanchang Uprising, according to the decision of the former committee, the rebel troops withdrew from Nanchang one after another and began to march to the south. In the process of the rebel troops moving south, the 25th Division served as the rearguard, so they were the last of the rebel army to leave Nanchang, and then they kept marching towards Guangdong.
At the end of September, the rebel army encountered the enemy's "encirclement and suppression" in the Chaoshan area, and a large part of the rebel army was scattered. In the face of fierce battles again and again, and in the face of the difficult march that followed, Li Shuoxun, who has rich experience in revolutionary struggle, has always been very concerned about the ideological problems of the soldiers.
If the spirit and inner conviction of a team are crushed, it will have extremely serious consequences, and if even the soldiers themselves do not believe that they can win in battle, how can our army really win?
Therefore, in order to solve this problem, Li Shuoxun highly carried forward the feelings of revolutionary optimism, and he told the soldiers about the experience he had gained when he participated in the battle, helping them to boost their morale. ”
Around October 1927, the rebel troops arrived in Tianxin Village in Junmenling, southern Jiangxi Province. It was here that the party organizations and comrades of the rebel army unanimously decided to send Li Shuoxun, who was most familiar with all aspects of the situation in Shanghai, to Shanghai to report to the rebel army troops on the current situation and ask for instructions on the future course of action of the rebel troops.
After doing simple preparations, Li Shuoxun said goodbye to ** and Zhou Shidi in Tianxin, and then Li Shuoxun set off for Shanghai. Li Shuoxun's trip was not smooth, and it could even be said to be difficult. In order to successfully circumvent the many checkpoints set up by the Kuomintang reactionaries, Li Shuoxun first arrived at Jiujiang by boat from the Ganjiang River, and then traveled to many places before finally arriving in Shanghai.
In Shanghai, after Li Shuoxun got in touch with Qu Qiubai, he gave a detailed report on the hard fighting of the Nanchang rebel army troops in the Guangdong-Jiangxi region. After that, according to the orders of the party organization, Li Shuoxun stayed in Shanghai, and for the next period of time, he worked in the white zone.
In 1929, out of the needs of the revolutionary cause, and also in consideration of Li Shuoxun's own outstanding military leadership ability, the party organization finally handed over the important responsibility of secretary of the Military Commission of the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee to Li Shuoxun. After assuming this position, Li Shuoxun worked directly under the personal leadership of the secretary of the Military Commission.
Subsequently, Li Shuoxun unified the peasant guerrillas in Nantong, northern Jiangsu, and Tonghai, and then collectively called the 14th Army of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army. After the reorganization of these peasant guerrillas and their strict training, their combat effectiveness was significantly enhanced, and they won many victories in guerrilla wars, large and small, that followed.
In 1931, the organs of the Guangdong Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China set up in Hong Kong were repeatedly maliciously sabotaged by the reactionaries, and many revolutionary comrades of our Party were brutally murdered by the enemy.
In the face of this sudden deterioration of the situation, Li Shuoxun was appointed as the secretary of the Military Commission of the Guangdong Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China, and then the organization sent Zhao Juntao to Hong Kong to assist Li Shuoxun in carrying out the next work. So the scene mentioned at the beginning of this article, the husband and wife who got together less and separated more reunited in Hong Kong.
At that time, after receiving Li Shuoxun's suicide note, since *** had instructed the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee to send all forces to rescue Li Shuoxun, and even had appointed a special person to go to Hainan, why did Li Shuoxun not survive in the end, and at that time, what tricky situation did he encounter?
In fact, long before Li Shuoxun took a boat to Hainan this time, the danger was already approaching him little by little, and even other people around him realized this. However, the arrangement of fate cannot be violated, and Li Shuoxun, who has always maintained a fierce loyalty to the party and the people, may be destined to sacrifice his life in the revolutionary journey.
Before and after Li Shuoxun set off from Hong Kong by boat, he had already bought a ferry ticket, and he said goodbye to Ke Lin, an underground worker of our party, at the Nanhua PharmacyCollinExpressing his concern in a few words, he said to Lee Seok-hoon at the time: ".You don't know Cantonese, let alone Hainanese, but now you have to go to a strange place like Qiongya to do secret work, which is very dangerous!
Li Shuoxun, who has been engaged in revolutionary struggle for many years, of course understands what Ke Lin said, but in order to open up the guerrilla war in Hainan as soon as possible and for the revolutionary cause of our party, Li Shuoxun at that time had already put his own life and safety in the second place. It's just that at that time, how could Li Shuoxun have thought that only four or five days after he arrived in Hainan, he would be arrested immediately.
At the beginning of August 1931, after dressing up as a trader, Li Shuoxun successfully arrived in Haikou City, and then he stayed at the Zhongmin Hotel. At the same time, Li Shuoxun anxiously waited to get in touch with the CCP's Qiongya Special Committee.
Yan Hongjiao, the former secretary of the Haikou Municipal Party Committee, had already been a traitor at that time, and his new identity is now the captain of the Kuomintang Fuhai Detective Team, so Yan Hongjiao often led a group of his subordinates to patrol the streets and alleys, and once he encountered a suspicious person, he immediately rushed up to search.
Four or five days after Li Shuoxun arrived in Hainan, because of his accent, he spoke a foreign dialect at that time, and was soon discovered by the traitor Yan Hongjiao, Li Shuoxun was immediately arrested, and his residence was also thoroughly searched.
After the successful arrest of Li Shuoxun, the enemy very much wanted to get from him the secrets of our party and some information about the guerrilla war in Hainan, so the enemy coerced and lured Li Shuoxun many times, but unfortunately Li Shuoxun never said a word and strictly guarded all the secrets of our party and our army.
Li Shuoxun's silence made the enemy very annoyed, since he did not eat soft, the enemy began to use all kinds of torture tools, during that time, the enemy would change a new trick almost every day, and they finally used all kinds of terrible punishments on Li Shuoxun. Despite this, Li Shuoxun still didn't say a word, and those intelligence and secrets were chewed up in Li Shuoxun's stomach, and the enemy couldn't even think of it.
In the end, the Kuomintang Qiongshan County Governor Chen Mingdong and others personally came to interrogate Li Shuoxun, Li Shuoxun once again insisted on the enemy's punishment, and then Chen Mingdong and others commanded soldiers to beat Li Shuoxun's legs and feet with several large wooden sticks. Despite this, Lee Seok-hoon still kept all the secrets, but his two feet were completely broken.
At that time, Li Shuoxun was vaguely aware of his fate, he knew that he would not live long and that the enemy would soon take action, so he wrote a suicide note in advance.
At that time, since someone had already been sent to rescue Li Shuoxun, Ke Lin did not directly tell Zhao Juntao the news that Li Shuoxun was in danger. But Zhao Juntao missed her husband very much, she asked Ke Lin again and again about her husband's news, and over time, Ke Lin couldn't bear to hide it anymore, so she told Zhao Juntao the true situation.
After seeing her husband's suicide note, Zhao Juntao was grief-stricken, she knew her husband's personality and work habits very well, this time she must have encountered a very troublesome situation, otherwise her husband would not have written a suicide note. In the following period of time, Zhao Juntao opened this suicide note again and again, and read it every timeAfter death, the corpse will always be collected, and it will never come, and it will be instructedWhen he said a few words, Zhao Juntao's tears would pour out like spring water.
Just after Guangdong Province sent a special person to Hainan to rescue Li Shuoxun, it didn't take long for Zhao Juntao to know the news of her husband's sacrifice, and the news was published in "Guangzhou***, written in black and white, very clearly.
In September 1931, on the day of the execution, on both sides of the road leading to the execution ground of Haikou East School, the enemy arranged dense soldiers and was extremely heavily guarded. Li Shuoxun had his feet broken, and he could not walk, so he was carried by the enemy to the execution ground with a bamboo basket.
Before the official execution, although he was completely unable to stand, Li Shuoxun's momentum was no different from when he once led his subordinates to charge into battle, he was not afraid of danger, staring at the enemy in front of him as if he were at home, and then shouted a few slogans, these slogans were so loud that they were almost full of breath, as if the ground under his feet was trembling with these slogans.
Li Shuoxun shouted at that time: "Down with the Kuomintang reactionaries, down with Chiang Kai-shek, long live the Communist Party of China!" After a few slogans, a row of sinful gunshots rang out, and Lee Seok-hoon died heroically.
In this way, martyr Li Shuoxun dedicated himself to the party, martyred for the people, and left us forever.
