Blood red and blood black

deserter

November 1934, Xiangjiang.

This was the most tragic battle after the Red Army left the Yudu base area. The position of the first army was full of wolf smoke, and the sound of wailing and shouting of killing was tearing the ground to the sky. In the sky, several enemy planes were bombarding indiscriminately, and enemy shells were flying like locusts.

The positions of the 1st Corps were boiling.

Zhang Guangwen, a soldier of the Red Army, lay in wait in the trenches, and he did not know how many times he had repelled the enemy's attacks. The soldiers were red-eyed, smoky, and couldn't tell their original faces. The comrades-in-arms around him lay down in batches, some were wounded, and curled up there, wailing one after another.

The Xiangjiang River was the fourth blockade line through which the Red Army's Long March passed, and the Red Army did not experience more resistance in the first three blockade lines, and shouted all the way over. The Xiangjiang River is the boundary of Hunan, and the Hunan army feared that the Red Army would occupy Hunan, so they resisted desperately, vowing to wipe out the Red Army on both sides of the Xiangjiang River.

The 1st Army Corps and the 3rd Army Corps undertook the task of blocking the Hunan army and covering the large army to cross the Xiang River. 100,000 Red Army, carrying the whole country on their shoulders and on their backs, is on the move.

It's been a week, and the troops are still crossing the river.

In the course of a week, Zhang Guangwen has seen too many deaths. A good person, who was drinking a pot of water with him just now, turned his face, a cannonball fell, and the person disappeared with a loud bang and a wisp of gunsmoke. The enemy in front of him also fell in pieces, and the enemy officers were dancing guns and supervising the battle behind. He watched as the enemy officers shot and killed several of the retreating soldiers in a row. The soldiers, suppressed by the officer's intimidation, swarmed up again. The Red Army had to fight with all its might, otherwise it would be difficult to defend its position. The tug-of-war between the two sides turned the position of the Red Regiment into a scorched earth.

Zhang Guangwen was a member of the Red Army before the Fourth Anti-Encirclement Campaign. On that day, he was grazing cattle in the mountains. Yu Ying, director of the Village Soviet Women's Rescue Association, came. Yu Ying is the most beautiful girl in the nearby ten miles and eight villages, and a thick black braid is flicked around her waist. She laughs when she sees people, and her voice is like singing. When she saw Zhang Guangwen, she smiled and said as if singing: Guangwen, herding cattle.

As soon as Zhang Guangwen saw Yu Ying's eyes, he was fixed there, and his breathing was not normal. It was the first time he had looked at Yu Ying so closely. Yu Ying stood in front of him head-on, her tall chest shrugged one by one. He said dryly, "Ahh

Yu Ying said with a smile: Guangwen, join the Red Army, establish a Soviet, and live a good life.

Zhang Guangwen's elder brother Zhang Guangkai joined the Red Army last year and was fighting on the front line at this time. He remembered that that night, Yu Ying went to his house and called his brother out. It took a long time for my brother to come back. The next day, my brother joined the Red Army, wore a red flower, beat gongs and drums and went to the front.

Thinking of this, he said with a little stutter: My brother is a soldier, I want to go, and my father and mother will have no one to take care of me.

Yu Ying smiled again. She stretched out her hand and pulled Zhang Guangwen's hand, and in an instant, he seemed to have been electrocuted, trembling all over. Then, Yu Ying looked at him and said: Your father and mother have our Soviet **, you can leave with confidence, in the future, your father and mother will be my father and mother, and if I dry it, I will not let the second elder drink it thin.

Her eyes were like a bolt of lightning, and she hit Zhang Guangwen as she spoke. He groaned and said, "I haven't gotten a daughter-in-law yet."

Yu Ying also said: When the revolution is victorious, everyone will get married, and women like revolutionaries.

Zhang Guangwen listened with a dry mouth and couldn't say anything. The beautiful Yu Ying was frozen in an instant, forever engraved in Zhang Guangwen's mind.

Soon he joined the Red Army and was in the same company as his brother. During the fifth anti-encirclement battle, a bullet from one of the enemy's machine gunners pierced his brother's chest. His brother died in his arms. He hugged his brother, and before his brother took his breath, there was no trace of pain on his face, and he panted and said a word: Tell Yu Ying...... Before he could finish the rest of the sentence, his brother tilted his head and closed his eyes forever. What his brother wanted to tell Yu Ying, Zhang Guangwen couldn't guess, and this became a mystery left by his brother.

Soon, the base areas became smaller and smaller, and the Red Army was always passive.

It was not long before the Long March began. At first, they called this operation a transfer to another place to open up a new base area. But where exactly to go, no one can say. As for the name of the Long March, that was summed up by later generations.

The team embarked on a journey, and the farther they went, the farther away from the base area. The red base area was the home of the Red Army soldiers. Zhang Guangwen, like all Red Army soldiers, the more he moved forward, the emptier his heart became, and the more he felt bottomless. The march day and night had exhausted them, but his nerves were awake. He thought of his father and mother, and thought of his brother who died in battle, and now his father and mother were the only ones left with him, and how should they live in the future? When he thought of his father, he thought of the two thatched houses on the slope of the mountain, and his heart was on fire.

During this time, some soldiers in the company began to slip away. The troops camped in the mountains at night, and when they assembled the next day, they had a few fewer soldiers. The further you go, the worse this situation becomes. The cadres began to do their work, talking about the revolution and the beauty of the revolution after its success. Zhang Guangwen thought of what Yu Ying said. When the troops set off, Yu Ying came to see them on behalf of the village Soviet**, and he hadn't seen them for more than a year, Yu Ying had lost weight, but he was still so energetic. Yu Ying said: This transfer of troops is a transfer of victory, and when the Red Army returns, I will stand at the entrance of the village to pick you up. After speaking, two big eyes flashed, and there was something in the words. Before he joined the army, he looked forward to the day when the revolution would be victorious, and at that time, Yu Ying would come to pick him up. What would that look like?

The other soldiers deserted, and he also had the idea of slipping away, but he thought of Yu Ying's eyes, as if those eyes were looking at him. If he really slipped away and returned to the village, how would he face Ying's eyes. So, he held back and walked to the Xiangjiang River as soon as he left.

The positions on both sides of the Xiangjiang River are still fighting hard. When the Red Army first set out, there were more than 70 people in the company, and there were less than 20 people left. The war continued, and Zhang Guangwen didn't know when the battle would stop. The enemy's attack is stronger than the other, endlessly.

He finally realized that sooner or later, he would be killed by enemy bullets, or be blown up by **. He thought of his elderly father and mother again, and the second elder must have been standing at the door of the house at this time, looking at the direction of the team. Thinking of this, he howled in his heart: Father, mother—tears flowed.

That night, the enemy temporarily stopped the offensive. He was sent by the platoon commander to carry ammunition. The moment he left his position, he was ready to flee. He said to himself that this was his last chance, and if he lost it, he might die here after the enemy launched a new attack early tomorrow morning.

He walked at the end of the carrying procession, took the opportunity to urinate, and hid in the woods.

After waiting for a while, when he saw that no one was looking for him, he ran like crazy. As he ran, he said in his heart: I can't die, and if I die, I won't be able to see my father and mother. At this time, he thought of Yu Ying again.

He ran all the way, fell, got up again, and had only one thought in his heart: to go home.

At dawn, there was a faint sound of gunfire behind him. He knew that a new round of fighting had begun, but he was alive, walking in a wood. After running for more than ten kilometers, he finally relaxed and staggered forward.

Suddenly, he noticed movement not far away, and it was the sound of a person. He subconsciously hid behind a tree. The man approached, and staggered along. When he found the man, the man also found him. The two were not far apart, looking at each other. It was a deserter of the enemy, with nothing on him, standing there barehanded, but the uniform could not hide his identity.

After the initial panic, both of them quickly calmed down, and at the same time realized the identity of the other party's deserter.

The deserter smiled, showed a mouthful of white teeth, and said insightfully: Brother, now we are all the same, you are not the Red Army, I am not the Hunan Army, we have only one purpose, that is, to live.

He let out a long sigh and leaned against a tree. The deserter came up to him, and while pulling out a cigarette and smoking it, he squinted at him: "Brother, where are you?

He pointed ahead, which was the direction of Jiangxi, and said: Go home. He escaped just to go home and take care of his elderly parents.

The deserter shook his cigarette butt and said: Hello, you can go back to home. I can't go back, and if I do, I'll have to be caught by them. Yes, I'll go with you, wherever you go, if you stutter, you can live.

Zhang Guangwen walked in front, and the man followed behind. Along the way, he said less, and the man said more. Intellectually speaking, he was not wary of the man, but in his heart he could not accept that yesterday they had fought face to face, but now they had come together, and their common fate was to flee. He could never have imagined that he would meet such a person here.

That deserter was born with a broken mouth, as if he wasn't allowed to speak, just wouldn't let him breathe. He kept talking. He said that his home was in Hunan, and during his three years as a soldier, he ran away three times and was arrested three times. He was a machine gunner, and he had fought with the Red Army before this, and it was to encircle and suppress the Red Army. This time it was also an encirclement and suppression of the Red Army, but it was different from the previous times, this time the fight was too fierce, and too many people died. He was scared, so he ran out.

The identity of the deserter machine gunner touched Zhang Guangwen at once, his brother died under the enemy's machine gun, his clothes were pierced with a big hole, and his brother didn't even finish a complete sentence before he died. The elder brother died in the battle of Wuling Peak.

He stood still, stared at the deserter and asked, "Have you fought in Wuling Peak?"

The deserter was stunned, as if he was reminiscing, but soon said: I have fought more battles, and Wuling Peak must have fought. My machine gun swept away, and the people fell down one by one. I dream at night, and those dead ghosts come to haunt me, and I have nightmares.

He looked at him, believing that the person in front of him was the enemy who had killed his brother.

He continued to walk in front of him, with the force under his feet. The deserter snorted and said, "Brother, what are you doing in such a hurry, we are very safe now; you are afraid that I will follow you, are you? Don't be afraid, when I get out of the forest, you will take your Yangguan Road, I will cross my single-plank bridge, and our well water will not interfere with the river water."

He ignored the man and hurried ahead. Although his steps quickened, the mood to go home was light, and the man behind him was his enemy, who had killed so many Reds with machine guns, including his brother.

Later, when he got tired and didn't want to take a step forward, he stopped and leaned against a tree and gasped. The man behind him also stood on his feet, sat and gasped for a while, then lay on his back on the grass, and after a while began to snore. The battle of Xiangjiang was seven days and seven nights, and people's eyelids never rested. Zhang Guangwen's eyelids began to be a little sticky, but his mind was still very awake - lying in front of him was the enemy of the Red Army, he escaped from the team three times, and was arrested three times, who knows if he will be arrested again this time. When he was caught, he was a machine gunner again. Zhang Guangwen's ears rang again, the rows of Red Army soldiers in front of him fell as if they were cutting wheat, and the painful expression of his brother when he closed his eyes......

He stood up and walked towards the deserter. He looked at the unsuspecting deserter and pounced viciously. At this time, he felt that he was a Red Army soldier again, and he put his hands on the deserter's neck, and used his strength with all his might.

After some time, he staggered to his feet. In an instant, a pair of eyes flashed in front of his eyes, which were Yu Ying's eyes, full of approval. He tensed all over, looking at the strange forest in front of him, and he completely came to his senses. He said in his heart: I am a soldier of the Red Army.

Thinking of this, he staggered in the direction where the gunfire came. He felt that behind him, there was a pair of eyes watching him all the time.

Expand the red woman

After the loss of the Red Army in the Soviet base area at Guangchang, the battle became more and more difficult. At the time of departure, the procession was a long column of several columns, and it was very powerful. When they came back from the battlefield, the ranks were a lot shorter, and the soldiers bowed their heads and were very unenergetic.

After several defeats in five anti-encirclement and suppression campaigns, the ranks of the Red Army were seriously short of personnel, and the Soviets at all levels regarded the expansion of the ranks of the Red Army as their primary task. For a time, many women emerged, and later, many of them became models for the expansion of the Soviet region. The Soviets also had certain convenient conditions for entrusting this glorious and arduous task to the girl.

Yu Ying, director of the Soviet Women's Rescue Association, was in her early twenties that year, with a pair of talking eyes and a thick black braid thrown around her waist. In those days, she kept talking to those boys.

Outside the village, there have been several expansions, and young and strong men have joined the Red Army without hesitation. They had only one goal, to defend the Soviets, to defend the fruits of victory. They were desperate to join the Red Army.

At this time, all the young and middle-aged people who could join the army were gone, some died on the battlefield defending the Soviets, and some were still fighting in the ranks. There were still a few sixteen or seventeen-year-old half-grown children left in the village, and when the revolution reached a critical juncture, the work of expanding the red became the work of these would-be men. At that time, the streets and alleys of the village were plastered with bright slogans: Everyone has a duty to defend the Soviets. At the head of the village and at the end of the village, there was a hot revolutionary atmosphere.

Yu Ying's two brothers both joined the Red Army, and she was the only girl left in the family. The ranks of the Red Army did not recruit female soldiers, and if they did, she would have signed up for them a long time ago. The passion of the revolution lies in Ying's heart, for the revolution, she can do anything, and she looks forward to the day when the revolution will be victorious. She is now a cadre of the Village Women's Relief Association, and her job is to spread the popularity, and as long as a group of young people are sent to the ranks of the Red Army through her hands, the revolution will have any hope of victory.

Liu Erwa is grazing cattle in the mountains. Liu Erwa's family is the only seedling of him, and he is seventeen years old this year. When Yu Ying found Liu Erwa, Liu Erwa was a little surprised. He knew Yu Ying, a female cadre who often went to their village to carry out red expansion work, and one after another young people joined the army and left after her mobilization. Liu Erwa looked at those young people, wearing a big red flower on her chest, accompanied by the beautiful female cadre Yu Ying, walked out of the house and walked into the team, which made Liu Erwa's heart itch. He also hoped that he could join the army, and with Yu Ying's company, he happily walked out of the house. But his father and mother didn't agree with him joining the army, and they betrothed him, he didn't like that girl at all, what he liked in his heart was Yu Ying.

Erwa never dreamed that Yu Ying would come to him.

It was a good day, there were no clouds in the sky, and a few cows were grazing leisurely on the hillside. Liu Erwa sat under a tree, and Yu Ying also sat down. Erwa's heart is itchy, and he listens to Yu Ying like listening to a song.

Yu Ying said: Erwa, join the army, it's glorious to join the army.

Yu Ying also said: Erwa, be the Red Army, defend the Soviets.

......

The second baby listened to Yu Ying's words, and suddenly felt that the world was spinning. He said incoherently, "Yes...... I can herd cattle.

Yu Ying said: If you join the army, your family is a military dependent, and someone in the village will help your family herd cattle.

My father and my mother disagreed. Erwa still gasped and said.

Your father's and your mother's work will work. Yu Ying still said as if singing.

My father and my mother let me get married and take the incense.

When a new society is established, it's not too late to get married, and you can choose the girl at that time.

The second baby's eyes fell on Yu Ying's face one by one, and Yu Ying looked at the second baby in front of her sincerely and passionately. The second baby seemed to have received some kind of encouragement, and said dreamily: I want to ...... I want to marry a girl like you.

After the second baby finished speaking, she felt that she was about to become a dead fish.

Yu Ying looked at Erwa with those talking eyes watery, she blushed and said: Erwa, when you join the army, the revolution is victorious, you become a hero, and I will marry you.

Really, Erwa stood up with her eyes wide open.

Really, I don't lie to you. Yu Ying also stood up and looked at the second baby sincerely.

Sister Yu Ying-Erwa screamed, and hugged Yu Ying tightly. Yu Ying let the second baby hug herself with all her strength, and her heart was full of maternal tenderness. She stretched out her hand and touched the second baby's head. She knows that when the second baby leaves, she may be able to come back, maybe she has sacrificed, maybe she has become a hero, everything is unknown. In any case, they were in defense of the Soviets, and it was not easy for them. Thinking of this, Yu Ying's eyes moistened.

A few days later, Erwa joined the army. He was wearing the straw sandals that Yu Ying made for him, and wearing the red flowers that Yu Ying tied for him, and Yu Ying walked out of the house and came to the team accompanied by Yu Ying. When he broke up with Yu Ying, he said in a moist voice: Sister, I finally became a soldier, you wait for me.

Yu Ying nodded firmly.

The second baby is gone, and he carries dreams and hopes with him.

Yu Ying turned her back, and two tears rolled out. She knew she had a difficult task ahead of her, so she headed for another hill. There is also the third child of the Ma family on that hillside, who is also sixteen years old this year. She walked towards Ma San again......

On the day the Red Army embarked on the Long March, Yu Ying personally sent away sixteen boys to join the army. She was rated as a model female model by the Soviets.

A few days later, the Red Army troops set out from Ruijin and Yudu. On the morning of the Red Army's departure, Yu Ying was stunned at home for a long time, she didn't know when the Red Army would return. The voices and smiles of one male baby after another appeared clearly and profoundly in front of her eyes.

Ma San said: Sister, on the day the revolution is won, I will marry you.

Wang Xiaowu said: Sister, wait for me to come back.

......

Thinking of this, she was already in tears.

Those younger brothers were leaving, and she wanted them to remember her, to remember the day when the revolution was victorious, and to come back to her. She had nothing to use as a token, and she saw her own black hair in the mirror. She found scissors, cut her hair neatly, carefully divided it into sixteen more parts, and then carried it in her arms and hurried to the place where the Red Army had assembled.

It's already crowded there. The people who saw them off and those who were about to leave shouted each other's names. This one handed over two eggs, and the other handed over a pair of straw sandals. The boys wept and said, "We still called back." The villagers also choked up: We are waiting for you to come back.

Yu Ying found Li Zhu in the team, and Li Zhu also saw her, and called affectionately: Sister-

Yu Ying took out a strand of hair from her arms and stuffed it to Li Zhudao: Take it, this is my sister's.

Li Zhu looked at Yu Ying, who had cut her hair short, and said with tears in her eyes: Sister, you wait, I will definitely call back.

She bit her lip and said, "Sister is waiting for you."

After speaking, she waved at Li Zhu and ran forward again. Finally saw Ma San in another team......

The team walked back step by step, with nostalgia and reluctance, and embarked on the journey.

The rain was falling, accompanied by the tears of the relatives who saw them off, and sprinkled on this red land together.

Since then, people will often see Yu Ying standing on the dirt road at the entrance of the village, looking into the distance. At that time, there were many people who were looking forward to it day and night, hoping that their team would come back soon.

Later, when the team arrived in northern Shaanxi, the Red Army was changed to the Eighth Route Army, and then to the People's Liberation Army. The whole of China has been liberated, and those who have gone out have also returned. Only the sixteen Red Army soldiers sent out by Yu Ying personally did not return.

Yu Ying has never been married, and every day she will walk to the dirt road at the head of the village and stand there and watch for a while. For so many years, the sighting and waiting of the village head has become a part of her life, regardless of wind, frost, rain and snow, it has never stopped. The villagers said that Yu Ying was a strange person.

Yu Ying's hair has long grown, first it was black and slippery, and later, it was white, and then it was completely white. Now Yu Ying still stands at the entrance of the village every day. Her eyes had long become tears, and after looking at it for a while, tears flowed out involuntarily. While wiping her eyes with the placket of her clothes, she said in her heart: Sister, when you come back, why don't you come back?

Later, Yu Ying, who was seventy or eighty, couldn't live. After her death, the village buried her on the hillside at the entrance of the village according to her last wishes, and a tablet was erected in front of the grave, which read: Expand the red model Yu Ying.

Now, she stands on the hillside at the entrance of the village every day, looking into the distance, thinking, thinking, and looking forward to.

Female soldiers on the Western Road

In the first battle of the Red West Route Army in Yangquanyu, Gansu, Wang Qian, a doctor of the women's regiment, was captured alive by horse bandits. Dozens of soldiers of the women's regiment were also captured.

Before Wang Qian was captured, she was ready to die with the enemy. The bandits surrounded a battalion of the women's regiment, and by that time they had dressed themselves up as male soldiers, their long hair tucked into their hats, and they had scratched dirt and wiped it on their faces.

The horse bandits surrounded them on a single night at Yangquanyu. They had organized a breakout in the middle of the night, and the team could be regarded as breaking out, and it took them half a day's strength to run for several miles, but the cavalry of the horse bandits surrounded them again in the blink of an eye.

After daybreak, the enemy attacked. Ever since they were surrounded by enemies, they had no intention of getting out alive. They kept the last bullet or hand ** for themselves.

The enemy attacked, and a platoon of cavalry came at them like a wind. They lay down in stones or hollows, and after firing rows and rows of bullets at the enemy, some of them fell off their horses, and some continued to rush forward, and the sabers in the hands of the enemy shone in the sun. Eventually, their bullets ran out, and the enemy's cavalry easily rushed into their positions.

Wang Qian still has the last hand ** in her waist, and she wants to wait for the enemy to come closer, and then die with the enemy. When she saw the two enemies smirking and rushing towards her, she pulled out her hand and pulled the safety open. The enemy was stunned, and Le Ma stood still, but the hand in her hand did not explode, it was another dud!

The enemy's saber swung in front of her eyes and knocked off the hat on her head. Her long hair fell down, and another horse bandit exclaimed: It's a female hairy thief.

Before she could get up from the ground, she was picked up by the horse bandits. As soon as her body was in the air, it was up to her to decide. The tough horse bandit took a chicken and captured her alive. At the same time, dozens of cadres and fighters of the women's regiment were also caught.

They were kept in a sheepfold.

The horse bandits were really happy for a while to capture so many female prisoners. They set up bonfires, ate meat, drank wine, and dragged the female captives out of the hall.

They didn't want to get any secrets from the female captives, and they didn't have any secrets to speak of. Even, the bandits don't care about their identity, in their eyes, they are just women of different heights. Their passing through the hall is actually looking at each other.

Most of the horse bandits who have lived in the Gobi Desert for many years, regardless of their positions, have not married, and in the vast Gobi, what they lack most is women. They have captured so many women in this war, and they want to enjoy and live. The horse bandits chose these female prisoners according to their positions.

Wang Qian was chosen by one of the leaders of the horse bandits. The surname of this regiment leader is Ma. The head of the horse group made it impossible to tell his actual age, the scar on his face was like a knife, he was wearing a sheepskin jacket, and he carried a box gun with twenty rounds in his hand. Like a hungry wolf, he looked around Wang Qian, left and right, and waved his hand and said: Lao Tzu wants her.

After speaking, the two guards set up Wang Qian and left, it was useless for you to struggle and shout. There are several rows of earthen houses at the regiment headquarters, staggered from side to side, and there is a smell of sheepfolds. On this Gobi Desert, it would be nice to have these earthen houses.

The horse bandits had already prepared clothes and some food for Wang Qian. The clothes are the homespun clothes often worn by women in the northwest, and the food is milk tea and naan, which is the best chewing for horse bandits.

Wang Qian doesn't change her clothes and doesn't eat. From the moment she was captured, she had only two thoughts in her mind, and that was to flee or die. Running away, she didn't have a chance. When they were collectively locked in the sheepfold, there were many horse bandits around them, and they just ran out, and they ran out of the vast Gobi, and they would be caught by the horse bandits if they ran not far away. Someone tried, and it ended in failure. When she was brought out by Commander Ma, she thought that she would have a chance, but she didn't expect that there were always a few soldiers standing guard in front of and behind the house, and they were swaying around like shadows. It seems that there is no hope of escaping, and there is only one death.

In addition to the earthen walls in the house, there is an earthen kang, and I want to die, but I don't even have anything to scratch. At this time, she hated the dumb hand **. If that hand ** exploded, she wouldn't need to be so tormented. The horse bandits brought her here, and she knew what the consequences were waiting for her.

She was locked up in an earthen house, her eyes were red, and she truly experienced the pain of not being able to survive and die.

After the sound of horses' hooves, when the head of the horse appeared in front of her drunken with his whip, the light in the room was half dimmed at once. Captain Ma looked at her again and again with a pair of drunken eyes, and then said: Hey, you don't eat or drink, what are you thinking? You will be my aunt from now on, and you will live with me and have children in the future.

After speaking, he rushed over with red eyes, and tore Wang Qian's clothes in three or two clicks. It was her military uniform, and although it was ragged, it was a status symbol after all. After the head of the horse ture off his clothes, he crumpled them into a ball again, threw them outside the door, and said to the horse bandits outside: It's burned, look at what she is still wearing!

The next thing inevitably happened. Captain Ma ** her. At this time, there was only one thought in her mind: die, die-

She wanted to die, but there was no way to find death, so she could only go on a hunger strike, not eating or drinking. Two days later, the effect was there. At this time, she was so weak that she no longer had the strength to get up from the kang. This point has long been under the control of the horse bandits. A few soldiers came over, broke her mouth, and forcibly poured a bowl of milk tea into it. She wanted to vomit, but she couldn't, so she retched. She finally understands that wanting to die is not as simple as she thinks.

The turning point of events was that two months after being caught by the horse bandits, she found out that she was pregnant, and the child had already manifested itself in her emaciated body. This child is the flesh and blood of her and Captain Zhang. Before the Red Army's Long March, she married Commander Zhang. At the beginning of the Long March, they had been together, he was the head of the regiment, she was the doctor. Two months ago, she crossed the grassland with the women's group, and at first the head of the Zhang regiment also crossed the grassland, and then when she crossed the grassland again, she turned back and went to northern Shaanxi with the main force of the other road. Only then did she separate from her husband.

It was then that she remembered that since she broke up with her husband, she had never had her period again. She hadn't thought about it at all, tired of marching and fighting a while ago. Only now did she realize that the child in her womb had been left behind by her and her husband. According to the time calculation, the child has been more than four months old. As a doctor herself, she firmly believes in this.

Since she found out that she was pregnant with a child, she didn't want to die for a while, and she didn't want to run away. Her only belief was to give birth to the child safely, which was left to her by her husband and the seed of the Red Army. She was going to give birth to the child and raise him. As soon as she made up her mind, she was a completely different person, eating when she should eat and drinking when she should drink. After a few days, her face was rosy and her body was strong. A pair of eyes are no longer so blank, but firm as iron.

The leader of the bandit first noticed this change in her, and then found the child in her womb. The leader of the horse bandit thought it was his own credit, and happily patted his thigh and said: My old man Ma also has a back, a back.

In those days, Captain Ma cared about her very much and obeyed her.

One day, eight months after Wang Qian was captured, she gave birth to a baby boy, who was very healthy and looked very much like her mother. The head of the horse was even happier than her, slaughtering sheep and killing horses, celebrating for three days, and when he met people, he grinned and said: My aunt gave birth to a pony cub for me.

The birth of the child stabilized Wang Qian's heart. As the child grew up day by day, she thought about running again. At this time, the horse bandits were already very relieved of her, and they had long removed the surveillance of the guards, and she was able to come and go freely in the barracks. She seems to be calm, and she has been looking for an opportunity to escape.

On one occasion, when the commander of the horse led the team to rob and kill a group of rebels, only one platoon was left to guard the home and nursing home. At this point, she finally waited for her chance. Before leaving, she stole a horse, then tied the four-year-old to the horse, and rushed out of the barracks like the wind. The guards found out and wanted to stop her, but she dropped a sentence: Find my husband.

Before the sentry could figure out where the commander's wife was looking for her husband, the man and the horse blew by like the wind right under their noses. Her horsemanship was honed in the past few years with the cavalry of the horse bandits, and she made all preparations for this escape.

Half a year later, she found the Eighth Route Army office in Xi'an. The people in the office warmly received her, arranged for her to eat and lodging, and reported her situation to the Yan'an headquarters level by level. Soon, instructions came from the headquarters, and in view of Wang Qian's complicated experience and the difficulties of returning to the army with her four-year-old child, it was recommended to repatriate. During this period, Head Zhang got married again in northern Shaanxi. During the war years, a woman who had been missing for four or five years had not been heard from could be imagined. Of course, Wang Qian didn't know all this, she just received an order to repatriate. Many female soldiers of the Western Route who had the same fate as her before and after her faced this outcome.

Wang Qian had no choice, she carried the five silver dollars given to her by the Eighth Route Army Office, and returned to her hometown Hunan. At that time, she had always believed that her husband, Tuanchang Zhang, would come to her one day, because she was his wife, and they had children in common.

She lived day by day in waiting and watching. His son, Xiyazai, is also growing up day by day.

First the Japanese surrendered, and then a full-scale civil war broke out. She paid more attention to the movements of the war than others, because her husband was on the ranks.

The whole country was liberated. Soon, the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea began again.

The fine bud boy has grown into a teenager. Wang Qian was waiting and watching, and white hair faintly appeared on her green hair. At this time, she was still convinced that her husband would come to her.

One day in 1953, she unexpectedly heard her husband's name, which she heard from the mouth of a ** person. The man said that her husband was already the chief, and in a few days he would return with the whole family to save his relatives. My husband's hometown is also in Hunan.

Only then did she know that her husband already had a family. That year, he turned eighteen years old. When she heard this, the person changed, she didn't speak, she just shed tears, and the thin bud called her, and she was also motionless.

After a few more days, the chief from Beijing finally returned. He returned to his hometown, went to the grave of his parents, and visited his fellow villagers. Someone talked about her, and her husband didn't expect that she was still alive and had an eighteen-year-old child.

The chief, having settled his family in the city, came to the village alone to see her. When the people rushed to bring the chief to her house, they were amazed to find that she had hung herself from the beams of the roof.

The crowd was horrified and didn't know what was going on.

The chief burst into tears, and when he left, he gave her a military salute.

Not long after, the fine bud boy joined the army.
