At the beginning of July, 1935 suddenly got terrible jaundice (viral hepatitis) and was treated in the hospital affiliated to the headquarters for one month. By the time I got well, the Hong Jiu Legion had crossed the Dajinchuan from Songgang and headed for the front. After leaving the hospital, I was transferred to the General Health Department and assigned a job. From then on, I left the ninth army.

Hong Jiu Legion, after I worked there for ten percent, it has been almost three years now. Looking back on the past three years, we are all on the front line, and we are always in the environment of marching and fighting. In the past few years, I have been working in the War Department of the Ninth Army Corps. Many people's faces are so familiar and affectionate. This is a very meaningful and unforgettable experience.

Hong Jiu Legion is one of the first, third, fifth, seventh, ninth and fifth legions of the First Army. Founded in the summer of 1933, it is composed of the following troops. Her predecessor was the Capital (Ruijin) Division, also known as the Third Division of the First Corps, which was compiled by the step school directly under the Red Army University as the Third Division. Seven groups of 3 100 people; The independent tenth division of Fujian Military Region was organized into the eighth regiment, with 2,800 people; The independent third division of Jiangxi Military Region was organized into the ninth regiment, with 3,000 people. It was organized by the Southeast Battlefield Administration as a direct unit of the Third Division.

1933, according to the instructions of the Central Military Commission, our army established the Third Division of the Red Army Corps in Jiangxi. According to statistics, there are more than 4,000 people in this division, with Zhou Kun as the division commander and Wu Xiuquan as the political commissar.

1932 10 the third division was established in ruijin, with a total of about 1500 people.

1June, 933, 65438+1October was transferred to the front line in southern Jiangxi. Shi Zhang, political commissar Cai Shubin.

1March, 933, it was transferred back to the capital Ruijin for reorganization, and Ruijin added 3,000 troops. The whole division is equipped with new equipment. In the East Huangpi Campaign of the First Corps, the 52nd Division of Chiang Kai-shek bandits was wiped out, and most of the weapons were changed.

1933 in may, he was transferred to the northern line to formally participate in large-scale operations and began to belong to the first legion.

Ruijin Model Union Division was first established in the winter of 1932, with an initial strength of about 3,000 people, all of whom were Ruijin soldiers. In the "Red May" expansion movement in May of 1933, more than 1300 people volunteered to join the division, bringing the number of teachers to more than 4,300.

Shortly after the establishment of the Ruijin Model Division, it was incorporated into the Red Army Corps by the Zhongge Military Commission. 1933 10 The Central Military Commission established Hong Jiu Corps on the basis of the Red Third Division. Since then, the Hong Jiu Legion has always regarded the Red Third Division as a capable force.

1June, 933, based on directly under the authority of Ruijin Division (3rd Division), the Ninth Army Corps was ordered to be established. Commander, political commissar Cai, chief of staff and commander of the third division Guo, director of the political department Huang, and director of the State Political Security Bureau Ouyang Qin. Assigned by the first corps to the teaching camp, engineering company and supply department, the team directly under the ninth corps is formed.

At that time, the Ninth Army Corps was directly under the Third Division (Ruijin Division) and the 15th Division (Little communist party Division), with a total of more than 20,000 people.

During the period from1June 933 to1June 934 and1June 934, the Hong Jiu Legion served as the left front in the battle to defend Lichuan and Guangchang, and fought tenaciously with the enemies of four divisions for several months. Among them, he participated in the famous battles of Xiaoshi, Fei Ying, Dunkou, Xicheng Bridge, Du Kang and Hengcun.

1934 65438+ 10, was ordered to move eastward to cooperate with the Fujian Incident and enter the Shunchang, Jiangle and Yangkou lines in the Minjiang River Basin. In March, he was transferred back to the central northwest line to participate in the defense of Xingguo and Guangchang.

1July, 934, as an advance unit, he escorted the Red Seven Army Corps northward to resist Japan, entered the Zhang Hu Ban area in the lower reaches of the Minjiang River, and marched for 2,000 miles. In August, he entered Fujian East Road and participated in the defense of Xihua Mountain. 10 June 16, our army participated in this expedition. When dispatched, the Ninth Army Corps was directly under the jurisdiction of the Third Division and the 22nd Division.

During the Long March, the Ninth Army Corps was fully responsible for the flanking actions of the Central Committee. The fighting was extremely frequent, almost every day, and the marching distance was also the most.

We have completed this historical journey, starting from Fuzhou near the lower reaches of the Minjiang River in the east, passing through countless mountains and rivers, and traveling all over the Yangtze River provinces and Zhu (Zhu) River basins. Moreover, we have been to many places that we never dreamed of, walked many tortuous roads, experienced many hardships and hardships, suffered cold, warm and bitter, and won brilliant victories in the strict exercise of revolutionary practice. Now, when we measure the distance from Zhanghuban to Fujian, Jiangxi, Guangdong, Hunan, Guangxi, Guizhou, Sichuan, Yunnan and Kangkang on the map, we have traveled 2. 1 Vandory.

Looking back on the short history after the establishment of the Ninth Army Corps of the Red Army, it was full of tension, marching and fighting. After hundreds of wars, they all completed their tasks, and some turned the corner in extremely dangerous situations, realized their survival and development, and created countless miracles.

In the long-term life of fighting and marching, I deeply realized what confidence and strength the Party and Chairman Mao's orders and instructions brought to the troops. However, all metaphors are not as touching as the facts themselves. Steel is no stronger than the will of our soldiers. The soldiers said: "People say that we are iron legs, even iron legs, which have long been worn short." This witticism contains a touching truth: "victory lies in our legs." Comrade Stalin said: We and the Red Army are made of special materials.

Those who have experienced hard struggle in the journey of 14 months will cherish every victory more; Who knows what miracles our Red Army of Workers and Peasants has caused in human history with their infinite tenacity and tenacity?

Now, when we open the diary in the array and recall this period of time, the road of more than 2 10000 miles depends entirely on the hard progress of our feet, just like pictures passing by my eyes.

We also know how the victories we have experienced in the past 14 months were won. Now that we are famous in Songgang, we are sad that among those who live, study, work and fight together, we have lost many close comrades who once looked forward to victory with us.
