Just when the First Education Brigade entered Hejian County and dealt with Gao Shuncheng's troops, Li Qing commanded the Third Education Brigade to divide the troops and rushed towards Wuqiang, Shenxian, Xianxian and Jiaohe.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Zhong Zan-daehe, the head of the Ninth Regiment, led his troops to the surroundings of Wuqiang County.
This Wuqiang County was originally occupied by Duan Haizhou's troops. After the Japanese army began a large-scale clearance, Duan Haizhou led his troops to break through and move. Since Wuqiang was an important fulcrum on Cangshi Road, after the Japanese army occupied it, not only did a large brigade of troops stationed here, but also a
The puppet troops assisted in the defense. This part of the puppet troops is the third ministries of Shizhou, which originally operated in Hedong, Fuyang.
It turned out that under the encirclement of the Japanese army, the three troops of Shi Sheng were defeated and dispersed by the Japanese army. Shi Sheng San led Chen Lianju, Zhou Chaogui and other groups of defeated generals surrendered to the Japanese invaders and were adapted into a regiment of the puppet North China Public Security Army.
Use it to allow Shisansan to lead the Ministry to temporarily assist in the defense of Wuqiang County.
Last night, the Japanese brigade commander stationed in Wuqiang informed Shi Shengsan that the Imperial Army would go to Baoda Road to pursue the Eighth Route Army, and asked him to lead his troops to defend Wuqiang County, with people in the city, and strictly prevent the Eighth Route Army from attacking.
Shi Shengsan didn't know that the Japanese army was retreating in a panic. He thought that the Japanese army was really going to pursue the Eighth Route Army and handed over the huge Wuqiang county to his management. He felt very happy. After sending the Japanese army away, Shi Shengsan directly sent someone to go there.
He arrested the daughter of a shop owner and a young master came.
On the morning of the first day of the lunar month, Shi Shengsan woke up and took a few sips. After getting enough, he saw that the girl he caught last night was still curled up on the bed and cried, and he shouted impatiently: "Why are you crying? I like you.
It was the blessing of burning high incense from the eight generations of your ancestors. Women are born to make people sleep. It is much better to let me sleep than to let poor people sleep! If you weren't that you were so beautiful, I wouldn't want to sleep.
Sleep! If you dare to cry, I will send you to the Japanese and let them ruin you to death!”
The girl stopped crying and stared at Shi Shengsan with her frightened eyes.
Shi Shengsan felt that it was so fucking bad luck. Isn’t it just a pretty girl? I’ve slept a lot in my life and I’m crying like this girl. How could I join the team and be the commander?
Shi Shengsan, who felt unlucky, ignored the girl and turned away from the bedroom and went to the regiment headquarters.
Sitting on the chair of the Grand Master, blinking his eyes and thinking for a long time, Shi Shengsan asked the orderly soldiers to call Chen Lianju and Zhou Chaogui, saying that they wanted to entertain gentry and celebrities in the Wuqiang County Government courtyard and let them prepare.
This is different from Gao Shuncheng. Gao Shuncheng is a native native who believes that rabbits do not eat grass by their nests and generally does not do evil locally. Shi Shengsan is an old soldier who travels around the world and has already developed a bad temper.
What I believe is that there is good grass by the nest, why run around? Otherwise, he would not have crossed the river and destroyed the bridge and brutally killed Ji Mengkuan and his son. What's more, Gao Shuncheng immediately negotiated surrender when the Japanese troops arrived, and the troops suffered no losses. The Japanese were surprised and also
It was an official who made a wish, and it was a gold ticket and a gold bar. At the end, a group of instructors were sent to train the troops. When Shi Sheng Sanyi saw the large Japanese troops sweep, he immediately concentrated the troops to escape, but he was not lucky and had no intelligence and was trapped in
The Japanese encircled the Japanese, and when they were about to raise the white flag to surrender, the Japanese firepower had already been launched. In addition, Shi Shengsan, Zhou Chaogui's killing of Ji Mengkuan and his son was unpopular, and many people had long since wanted to follow him, but they were afraid that he would not dare to escape.
, In this fight, the casualties and escaped, the 7,000 troops were soon left with only a thousand people. The Japanese army did not like him, and only gave him a regiment number, and did not even mention the issue of military pay.
.
Although Zhou Chaogui was a peasant, this guy was so savvy and extremely cruel. When he heard that Shi Shengsan wanted to entertain the gentry and celebrities in Wuyi, he had already understood it and knew that Commander Shi was going to get rich. He ran out immediately and gathered the team to separate.
Notify the merchants in Wuqiang County.
Chen Lianju was a little worried that being too anxious would make the Japanese disgusted, and asked whether he would inform the Imperial Army to avoid misunderstandings.
Shi Shengsan glared at his eyes and said, "The Japanese are eager to rob them first. Who doesn't like money? If the Japanese weren't for money, women and land, why would they fight China so far? Don't worry,
We invited these merchant gentry to drink and promote goodwill between Japan and China. The Japanese were too happy. When the money was received, I would just give the Japanese some. Besides, they didn't say that they would give us military pay. This is the New Year, let my brothers give us the New Year.
Are you drinking the northwest wind?"
While the two were talking, Zhou Chaogui ran back with a piss and shouted, "The commander is not good, the imperial army is back, and has entered the city."
"What did you say?" Shi Shengsan stood up in an instant.
Zhou Chaogui took a few breaths before saying, "Commander, I took my brothers to arrest people for the banquet. As soon as I arrived at a shop to catch the boss, I saw the Imperial Army back and disarmed all the brothers, saying that it was us.
Rebellion. Now, the large imperial army has arrived at our barracks. I slipped back to report the news while the chaos is in the chaos."
Shi Sheng Sanyi was shocked. If the Japanese were asked to disarm the team, would he be a big deal? But he couldn't be arguing with the Japanese, and he would die faster. It seems that he could only be soft-hearted and lose money and eliminate disasters.
!
Hurry up, the orderly soldiers took out a few small yellow croakers from it and put them in their pockets. Shi Shengsan pulled Chen Lianju, Zhou Chaogui led the guard out of the regiment headquarters and walked towards the street, preparing to find the Imperial Army.
The misunderstanding is explained clearly.
When I walked to the street, I found that the Imperial Army had blocked the county town, and its regiment headquarters was surrounded by the Imperial Army. The streets were filled with Imperial Army soldiers carrying bayonets. I saw the Sanyi Group of Shishen
The man walked out of the puppet army headquarters, and the soldiers of the imperial army were not polite at all. They came up and hit the butt stock, and even seized the guns of a group of people. Seeing that it was not a play, Shi Shengsan hurriedly shouted: "I am a public security officer."
The commander of the legion, Shi Shengsan, I want to meet Taijun, I am loyal to the Imperial Army."
This shout really worked, and the soldiers of the Imperial Army stopped beating. Shi Shengsan was still wondering. It turned out that the Imperial Army could understand Chinese, so he heard an Imperial Army officer ask: "Are you Shi Shengsan?
”
Shi Shengsan nodded quickly and wanted to speak again, but he heard the Imperial Army officer say, "The first platoon leader, report to the regiment commander and catch Shi Shengsan."
Only then did Shi Shengsan realize that he was fooled. This was not the Imperial Army. It turned out that the Eighth Route Army was disguised as a dress and attacked the city. I just don’t know where this Eighth Route Army came from. Meng Qingshan’s Hebei Guerrilla Army did not have such good weapons and equipment.
. Now that I’m done, I’m at the hands of the Eighth Route Army, how can I still have my life?
Thinking in his heart, Shi Shengsan stomped his feet and bowed his waist, and rushed towards the Eighth Route Army officer, trying to seize the hostage and protect him from running for his life.
Who knew that this group of Eighth Route Army disguised as Japanese troops not only had good weapons and equipment, but also had very strong hands. Only a few sounds of puffing and several bayonets stabbed Shi Shengsan in the back at the same time, lifted him up high, and then threw him down again.
On the ground.
This made Chen Lianju squatted aside, and Zhou Chaogui was so scared that he was incontinent and had feces and urine, causing him to smell bad.
The Eighth Route Army officer scolded the coward, and asked the soldiers to tie up Chen Lianju, Zhou Chaogui and their guards, and walked into the pseudo regiment headquarters by himself.
This Eighth Route Army officer is Song Wenhu, a heroic platoon leader who guarded the West Gate under Tianshui City. After the Tianshui Battle, Song Wenhu went to the Seventh Army for training again for his merits and was received by the commander of the army Liu Yimin. After the training, Liu Yimin personally ordered the general and led Song Wenhu away.
The 38th Regiment of the 13th Division was transferred to the 39th Regiment and served as the company commander, which was the reorganized company commander of the 6th Company of the 9th Regiment of the 3rd Education Brigade.
When the Ninth Regiment of the Teaching Regiment arrived near Wuqiang County this morning, I learned from the fellow villager that the Third Ministry of Shizhou, who had just surrendered to the enemy, was defending the city. The Japanese army had quietly retreated last night. The regiment commander Zhong Zan-Yahe political commissar Chen Zixuyi
After discussing, just continue to pretend that the Japanese army will go directly to the city without wasting ammunition.
The troops were all wearing Japanese leather boots and military coats. Just remove the Eighth Route Army cap and armband, then wear a steel helmet, and wear a small sun flag. It is not a problem to change clothes.
The puppet army guarding the city thought that the imperial army that went to pursue the Eighth Route Army last night was back, and the sentry didn't even dare to let go, so the troops rushed into Wuqiang County.
Song Wenhu was already an old Red Army, the Eighth Route Army, and he became a hero in the war. He took his company directly to the puppet army headquarters. On the way, he not only arrested the puppet army who led Zhou Chaogui to capture the shop owner, but also arrested the puppet army,
This also caught Shi Shengsan. The only drawback was that Shi Shengsan was stabbed to death by the soldiers in an attempt to resist and could not hold a public trial meeting.
By the time Zhong Zan and Chen Zixu entered the city, Wuqiang County had already returned to the hands of the people.
If it was a normal year, Wu Qiang, who was known as the hometown of wooden New Year paintings, was the time when the Spring Festival couplets were red, firecrackers were coming to the spring, and dumplings were fragrant in every household. Due to the great anti-Japanese war, various anti-Japanese armed forces in Wu Qiang were retreating in Wu Qiang's activities.
Wu Qiang was suffering from the soul. Zhong Zan and Chen Zixu went along the way. On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, all villages, villages, and towns were actually quiet, without even the sound of firecrackers.
Chen Zixu is a cultural person and knows Wu Qiang's wooden New Year paintings very well. He knows that Wu Qiang's New Year paintings are as famous as Tianjin Yangliuqing New Year paintings, Shandong Yangjiabu New Year paintings, Jiangsu Taohuawu New Year paintings, Sichuan Mianzhu New Year paintings, Henan Zhuxian Town New Year paintings are as famous as China
The hometown of New Year paintings. Wuqiang's New Year paintings have diverse themes and simple images, and are mostly closely linked to the reality of life. There is a folk saying that "Southern Tao (Taohuawu) and Beiliu (Yangliuqing) discuss painting shops, and farmers' New Year paintings are several Wuqiang",
What is the artistic characteristics of Wuqiang's wooden New Year paintings that have been prosperous for a long time: local flavor and local characteristics. Chen Zixu's favorite is the opera stories in Wuqiang's New Year paintings. When he was a child, his family often tried every means to ask someone to buy this kind of New Year painting. Until now, he
I still remember a song that his father taught him praising Wu Qiang's opera story and New Year's paintings: "The six palaces in Shandong are half the sky, not as good as Sichuan is half the Sichuan. It is said that Tianjin is densely populated, not as good as Wu Qiang's one southern pass. There are thousands of operas a day.
, I don’t know where the stage is.”
Seeing that Wuqiang County was in a state of sternness and no New Year atmosphere, Zhong Zan and Chen Zixu immediately ordered the troops to change back to the Eighth Route Army uniforms, flaunt the national flag, and declare to the masses that our army recovered Wuqiang.
Since Wu Qiang is famous for his New Year pictures, there are many opportunities for people to communicate with. After many years, an old Eighth Route Army recalled Wu Qiang's experience of persisting in the War of Resistance, saying with deep emotion: "Wu Qiang has high cultural quality in this place,
High awareness." The Ninth Regiment changed his clothes and slapped the national flag, and Wuqiang County became lively. The people rushed to the streets and surrounded the Eighth Route Army soldiers and asked around. Firecrackers also sounded, Spring Festival couplets and New Year pictures also began.
After posting, every household has the atmosphere of New Year.
Taking into account the factors of Japanese aircraft bombing, Zhong Zan-ya and Chen Zixu ordered the troops to immediately mobilize the masses to leave the streets and go home for the New Year to avoid being discovered by Japanese aircraft. In addition to keeping the guards, each unit will take them on squads.
Grains and gifts were used to celebrate the New Year at the homes of fellow villagers in the county town and villages and towns around the county town, and to mobilize the masses.
After arranging the troops for rest and New Year's Eve, Chen Zixu asked Zhong Zan to guard the regiment headquarters and took the guards to Nanguan by himself, dived into the treasure house of Wuqiang's wooden New Year's paintings, and began to slowly appreciate them.
Chen Zixu knew that from the Kangxi to Jiaqing periods of the Qing Dynasty, when Wuqiang woodblocks were in full swing, there were 144 painting shops in Nanguan alone, with front and back workshops, and production and sales integration, with thousands of villages around them.
Farmers have painting workshops, and there are more than 180 wholesale shops in other places. New Year’s paintings are sold nationwide. In the Nanguan area, at that time, it was "drawing every family and painting every household", forming the largest New Year’s painting creation, production and sales base in the north.
Although it is the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Japanese army has only arrived here on a large scale insurgency and suppression of Hebei. The time is very short, and the poison to the New Year painting industry is limited. Once we know that the Eighth Route Army has recovered Wu Qiang, we probably will open our shop owners soon.
Chen Zixu felt that since joining the Red Army, the most leisurely day of the New Year has passed. The troops won consecutive battles and the Japanese army was frightened. When he arrived at Wuqiang, he could realize his dream of visiting the New Year painting production process since childhood, and his life was also considered to be
Moisturized.
Tribute paper, door painting, central hall painting, strip screen, Buddha painting, magic code, window painting, couplet, screen mural, kang painting, lamp painting, group calligraphy and painting, opera story painting, agricultural custom painting, current affairs news painting, satirical humor
Painting, auspicious meaning painting, etc., etc., made Chen Zixu feel intoxicated. Finally, in a specialized comic strip workshop, Chen Zixu remembered Xiao Zhenghe and Xiao Dongjin's smart and cute eyes, and then took out
I gave my own allowance and bought a large stack of comic strips to send the guards back to the regiment headquarters.
Chen Zixu was about to go back to the regiment headquarters when he saw a little soldier having an argument with the owner of a painting shop. He hurriedly walked up and saw that it was Yan Su who was joining the army in Tianjin. Chen Zixu knew that Yan Su was from Xushui, Hebei.
He graduated from the Beijing Institute of Fine Arts and the Peking Art College, and studied painting. After joining the army in Tianjin, he was assigned to the Political Department of the 9th Regiment of the Third Education Brigade. Why did this little guy have an argument with his boss?
When he came forward, he realized that Yan Su was like him, obsessed with New Year's paintings. He accidentally got a New Year's painting. He wanted to compensate him. When the boss saw that he was an Eighth Route Army soldier, he refused to allow compensation and even gave the New Year's paintings.
he.
When he heard that it was this reason, Chen Zixu came forward to persuade him and simply bought this New Year picture.
Seeing that the political commissar arrived, Yan Su hurriedly saluted the report, and then blushed and looked at Chen Zixu buying paintings.
At this time, Chen Zixu suddenly had an idea and said, "Boss, I think our Wu Qiang's wooden New Year paintings are indeed good. Unfortunately, it is the War of Resistance Against Japan, and the people of the whole country are concerned about how to defend the country and the New Year paintings of those door gods
The content is a bit outdated. If you can draw some content to fight the Japanese, it will probably be a big seller.”
When Chen Zixu said this, the boss and Yan Su both lit up their eyes and kept saying that this idea was good. Yan Su was even more ready to draw a picture first for everyone to see.
Seeing that these two Eighth Route Army soldiers were both gentle and knew that they could not get involved, the boss hurriedly asked the guy to lay the table, get the pen, ink, paint and rice paper, and ask the Eighth Route Army Comrades to draw the draft first.
Yan Su held the pen in his hand, and the sound of cannons from Lugou Bridge sounded in his ears. What was shaking in front of him was the tragic signs of the Japanese army burning, killing and looting that he had seen along the way from Peking to Tianjin. Tears couldn't help but burst into tears in the corners of his eyes.
Chen Zixu saw that Yan Su was in a mood and hurriedly said, "Xiao Yan, don't just think about the cruelty of the Japanese invaders. Think about the Pingxingguan ambush, Yanmenguan ambush, Guangyang ambush, Yangmingbao bombing.
Destroy the enemy airport, think about our teacher recapturing Taiyuan and annihilated 40,000 elite Japanese invaders, think about our army's surprise attack on Tianjin, think about the 21st Division you have participated in, and the independent mixed 4th Brigade, think about
Think of the heroic posture of our Eighth Route Army soldiers when they charged, so I calmed down and then painted."
With this induction, Yan Su remembered the scene when he first met his teacher in Tianjin. It was a surprise crying! He thought about what he saw and heard in this heroic army since he headed south from Tianjin.
I felt like I was drawing my comrades, and the scene of destroying the 21st Division, forming the 4th Brigade independently, breaking through the Deshi Line, and Cangshi Road. My mind was full of comrades who bravely rushed to kill with rifles in their hands.
He bent down, waved his brush, and finished it in one go, and quickly outlined the sketch.
Chen Zixu took it and saw a mighty and tall Eighth Route Army soldier on the picture with an August 1 automatic rifle hanging on his chest, and a Japanese man stepped on his feet, and waved his bayonet with his right hand to stab the Japanese man. After watching, Chen Zixu said yes, that boss
When I came over, I found it was really good, but the character characteristics were slightly different from Wu Qiang Nian's painting methods. After obtaining Yan Su's consent, the boss took the brush and modified it slightly.
After Yan Su looked at it, she felt that the boss's level was extraordinary. After asking, she found out that he was a famous wooden New Year painter in Wuqiang County. Now she was no longer polite. Several people studied and discussed it together and soon colored it.
After the drawing was completed, it was already evening. The boss asked his friend to invite the woodcut master Zhang Fuwang and Xiao Furong, who were in the county, to mould it. He also invited Ren Da Black tone and Han Wannian to frame the paintings and make them overnight.
By dawn, this New Year picture called "Fighting Japan and Fighting Traitors" was made. When Chen Zixu saw that the picture structure was compact, the theme was prominent, the characters were concise, the composition was full, the lines were thick, the colors were strong, and he was very happy.
Shaking hands with several masters one by one. After that, Chen Zixu picked up Yan Su, swung it a few times in the air, and said loudly: "Comrade Yan Su, good! I want to report to the commander and ask for merit for you. This is the first time
I took a picture away and turned around and put it on the door of the teacher's room."
In this way, the Wu Qiang Anti-Japanese War New Year painting, which was famous in the painting world, was born early!
