In the Southern Anhui Incident, the New Fourth Army encountered internal problems, fell into the encirclement of the Kuomintang, and even lost contact with *** and others. However, Section Chief Cao wrote down a secret code on his leg, and the importance of this code was enough to save the entire New Fourth Army and avoid a tragedy.
So, what exactly is this code? Why does it have such an impact? Come and take a look at the heroic performance of the New Fourth Army during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, which dealt a powerful blow to the Japanese army.
In 1939, ** led a New Fourth Army from southern Anhui, ready to continue to fight against the Japanese army, let us witness their heroic historical moment. Remember, three times in a circle, ** for more historical stories!
* Jointly set up a radio squadron with Su Yu to transmit the battle situation and intelligence in real time, which made the New Fourth Army grow rapidly in central and northern Jiangsu, attracting a large number of young talents to join.
However, Chiang Kai-shek did not give up suppressing the Communist Party, and continued to fight against the Japanese army externally and suppress the Communist forces internally. After he discovered the development momentum of the New Fourth Army, he once again set off a ** climax, trying to control and frame the New Fourth Army in order to realize his ambition of unifying the interior.
On October 19, 1941, Chiang Kai-shek, in the name of fighting the Japanese army, ordered the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army to move to the area north of the Yellow River. However, his real purpose was to secretly issue a secret order later, send the Kuomintang army to outflank and encircle the Communist army, and capture Ye Ting alive.
Although the Communist Party was unaware of the impending crisis, in 1941, the Southern Anhui Incident, which shocked the world, broke out. This premeditated encirclement and suppression made it difficult for the New Fourth Army to resist in a short period of time, and it could only quickly disperse and escape, and even lost all contact with the organization, which made *** deeply anxious and unable to calm down.
He repeatedly asked the Ministry of Communications if there was any news on the New Fourth Army, but he did not receive satisfactory information.
**, and others are worried, once they lose contact with the New Fourth Army, the Communist Party and the New Fourth Army will suffer a huge blow and be infamous through the ages. Soldiers of the Ministry of Communications stood in front of the radio day and night, waiting for the good news.
A few days later, ** finally received a telegram from Cao Danhui, successfully stopping Chiang Kai-shek's conspiracy and protecting the reputation of the New Fourth Army and the Communist Party. In the Southern Anhui Incident, which shocked China and the rest of the world, Cao Danhui single-handedly brought new vitality to the New Fourth Army.
So, what exactly did he do?
In a long-planned Southern Anhui Incident, the New Fourth Army of more than 9,000 people led by Ye Ting, the leader of the New Fourth Army, was besieged by the Kuomintang heavy troops, and in the end less than 2,000 people survived.
But more crucially, the causes of this war are not known and are only known within the New Fourth Army and the Kuomintang. Due to the disparity in strength between the enemy and us, the remnants of the New Fourth Army, which had less than 2,000 men, could not compete with the Kuomintang, and they destroyed all the radio stations and intelligence, but still could not avoid the loss of radio personnel.
However, Cao Danhui, the main force of the Ministry of Communications, narrowly escaped in the breakout.
Although Cao Danhui managed to escape from captivity, he did not take the radio station with him, but chose to look north for the large army based on the information exchanged with the organization. In the process of fleeing, he successfully evaded the search of the Kuomintang and met Gu Xueqing of the military headquarters in a small mountain village.
When the two met, they were excited, but due to the urgency of the situation, they did not have time to talk much. They immediately approached a farmer's house and asked for help. The two sons of the family saw that they were members of the New Fourth Army and immediately generously gave them their clothes and pants.
With the help of the farmer, Cao Danhui and Gu Xueqing hurriedly looked for a boat to take refuge, but encountered Kuomintang soldiers on the way, and the two had to flee separately again. After that, Cao Danhui traveled to Jing County, met a mysterious woman, and was able to safely cross the other side of the river, and also reunited with Gu Xueqing here.
However, fate made people, and when the two were eating, they were unfortunately searched by the Kuomintang, but fortunately, with the help of the shopkeeper, they successfully escaped. However, Cao Danhui pondered that neither of them has contacted the organization at present, and the organization may not know the truth, and they are likely to be accused of trumped-up charges by the Kuomintang.
Next, Cao Danhui was faced with a tricky dilemma, and he needed to come up with a solution in order to get in touch with the organization and solve the problem.
When his teammates desperately broke through, Cao Danhui successfully evaded the pursuit of the Kuomintang and escaped again and again with the help of the people. He even met his comrades. However, he has now lost contact with the organization.
So, how did he get in touch with the organization again and provide intelligence? After leaving Jing County, Cao Danhui's mood gradually calmed down. But he realized that he hadn't reported specific information to the organization for so long, which was very detrimental to the organization.
And Commander Ye Ting warned him many times before breaking through that he must not cut off contact with the organization. However, Cao Danhui now has no radio in his hands, and the whereabouts of his teammates in the New Fourth Army who have the secret code for the communication are unknown.
And Cao Danhui is the only one who knows how to contact the organization, but the organization's *** will change from time to time, and the call sign method is difficult to remember and easy to forget. If he can't get in touch with the organization as soon as possible, he may never be able to reach him.
Cao Danhui had an idea and decided to write the call sign on his lap to prevent forgetting. Then, he quickly took Gu Xueqing north and met several teammates. However, the Kuomintang had already blocked the Yangtze River, and they could not escape.
To make matters worse, none of them know how to connect with the organization. Fortunately, Cao Danhui is the only comrade-in-arms who knows ***. So, he led a few radio workers to look for radios and use their parts to assemble small radio stations.
Under extremely difficult conditions, he got in touch with the organization and immediately conveyed all the truths and details about the incident in southern Anhui.
Before the Kuomintang was about to issue an announcement, ** immediately arranged for *** and others to make the truth of the incident in southern Anhui public. This move shattered the KMT's conspiracy, and society quickly turned to the Communist Party.
Cao Danhui's intelligence brought new hope to the New Fourth Army and the people of Jiangbei, who soon received the aid of the Communists and succeeded in crushing Chiang Kai-shek's plan.
All this is thanks to fighters like Cao Danhui who sacrificed their lives for the country, who have reinvigorated the Communist Party again and again, and through their unremitting efforts, we have been able to defuse crises again and again.
