Mrs. General Pan Zhenwu

From April 2065438 to April 2002, the Panjiajiu sisters rushed back to their hometown in Wuhan from all directions, and together with their 92-year-old mother Feng, they held a family art exhibition to commemorate the birthday of General Pan Zhenwu/the 0/04 anniversary of Kloc, which received unprecedented enthusiastic response. There are more than 500 works on display this time, including the excellent photography and brushwork of General Pan, as well as the calligraphy, painting, photography, seal cutting and fabric works of General Pan's nine daughters and her husband. After the exhibition, the collection "From Boss to Laojiu" has two pages, which is full of content and interesting. The painter Liu Sanduo once wrote a poem: "Pan Jiale, nine golden flowers." . Joker and elegant. "

General-an artistic family, such a big contrast makes the author curious, so I contacted Pan Yanyan, the daughter-in-law of Pan who lives in Beijing, to prepare an interview. Pan Lina, the eighth daughter of Pan family, heard the news and rushed to her sister's house in the city from her home more than 20 kilometers away. * * * Speaking of Pan's past.

Renamed Zhenwu, which means joining the army to revive the revolution.

Pan Zhenwu is a native of Changde County, Hunan Province, formerly known as Pan Ren 'an. 1908 was born in a peasant family. He has been smart and studious since childhood. After studying in a private school for five years, I was admitted to the first-class higher primary school in the county at the age of thirteen. His personality is lively and enthusiastic, and he is full of interest in new things. Influenced by the May 4th New Culture Movement at school, he joined the Patriotic Youth League, a peripheral organization of the Party.

/kloc-in the spring of 0/926, the Xiang army was in civil strife and the people were in poverty. 18-year-old Pan Ren 'an couldn't help wanting to be a soldier and ran to the Northern Expeditionary Army Recruitment Office to sign up for the army. However, because he is young and short, he can only be a messenger in the regimental headquarters, which is far from his ideal of "overthrowing warlords". Secretly, Pan Ren 'an is ready to throw another one. Soon, Changde established a peasant association, and Pan Ren 'an returned to his hometown and was elected as the propaganda committee member of the district peasant association, which made the uprising in full swing.

"Maybe from then on, my father became attached to art." The daughters said.

After the failure of the peasant uprising, the reactionary forces issued a wanted order offering a reward of 500 silver dollars to arrest Pan Ren 'an. Pan Ren 'an had to leave his hometown. In order to join the army and revive the revolution, he changed his name to Zhenwu.

1In July, 930, Pan Zhenwu joined the Red Army in Ganjiang, Jiangxi. Three months later, he joined the China * * * production party.

Pan Lina said: "1984, I accompanied my father back to my hometown in Changde. He first proposed to visit the families of the martyrs. Then we went to the local martyrs cemetery. Father didn't speak for a long time, his expression was solemn and full of tears. My father has always been cheerful and optimistic. This is the only time I have seen him cry. "

After Pan Zhenwu joined the Red Army, there was a well-known literary propaganda team in the base area at that time. The propaganda team enlivened the cultural life of the troops by telling stories and singing minor tunes, and Pan Zhenwu's lively nature was stimulated. He signed up for the literary propaganda team and soon became a cultural activist.

/kloc-in the spring of 0/933, the Pan Zhenwu Literature and Art Propaganda Team of the Red Army Corps was officially renamed as "Warrior Drama Club". Although the drama club is still amateur, it is a milestone in the history of cultural propaganda of the Red Army Corps. That year, the fourth counter-campaign against "encirclement and suppression" had just won, and the Central Red Army had grown to100000. August 1 day was officially designated as the anniversary of the founding of the Chinese workers and peasants red army. To this end, the Red Army held a large-scale commemorative event, in which the Warrior Drama Club was dominant. Their four-act drama "Nanchang Riot" written and directed by Nie and directed by Luo Ruiqing is very popular.

1934 10, the Long March has begun. At this time, Pan Zhenwu, then the director of the club directly under the Red Army, led the Warrior Drama Club to undertake the propaganda and agitation task on the way to the Long March.

Pan Yanyan said: "My father once told us that during the Long March, whenever the troops were exhausted from marching, it was the busiest time for the propaganda team members. They set up sheds with cloth on the roadside, planted red flags, played bamboo boards and shouted slogans, and performed their own allegro and flower drum words for the marching soldiers. Allegro and ancient paintings have a very magical effect on the propaganda team. When tired soldiers hear them, they will immediately recover. The propaganda team also publicized and mobilized the local people on the way to the Long March and encouraged them to join the Red Army. "

The Red Army suffered heavy casualties in hostile environment. Pan Zhenwu organized propaganda team members to improvise a short program according to the story that happened on the way to the Long March to boost morale.

Pan Yanyan said: "I heard from my father that he had a box of publicity materials collected in the Soviet area, all of which were accumulated by hand." They are the treasures of their propaganda work, and they are not willing to throw them away when they leave the Soviet area to streamline their equipment. However, when crossing the river on the way to the Long March, it was a great regret for my father to fall into the water and be washed away. "

1In August, 935, the Red Army and Red Star Column embarked on a difficult journey across the grassland. In order to ensure that more and more patients can eat and return safely, the army chief decided to set up a reception team and appointed Pan Zhenwu as the team leader. At that time, patients died every day because of lack of food and medicine. Pan Zhenwu endured great grief, buried the bodies of his comrades-in-arms and led other comrades to move on. After seven days and seven nights of trekking, Pan Zhenwu traveled 200 kilometers, and finally walked out of the grass with the sick and wounded, catching up with the main force.

One day, Luo Ronghuan, deputy director of the Political Department of the Red Army Corps, approached Pan Zhenwu and said, "According to the development of the situation, I decided to transfer you to the Political Department as the head of the Culture and Entertainment Section. On the way to the Long March, the propaganda and agitation work played a great role. You took in so many wounded people who crossed the grass and made great contributions. You must re-raise the banner of the Warriors Drama Club and do a good job in publicity! " Pan Zhenwu said: "I didn't take the lead, so I didn't get any credit, just a little effort. Please rest assured that I will do my best to complete the task! "

New Year's Day (1936) is the first New Year after the Red Army arrived in northern Shaanxi, and a lively military-civilian get-together was held. At that time, Pan Zhenwu, director of the societies of the Political Department of the Division, joined others in choosing two songs praising the Long March, The Victory Song of the Long March and The Minor of the Long March, which were sung by members of the Warrior Drama Club and were welcomed by the leaders and soldiers.

After the Wayaobao meeting, the central government determined the strategy of establishing the anti-Japanese national United front. In order to win over the Northeast Army, the superior transferred Pan Zhenwu as the anti-Japanese front minister of the Political Department of the Red Army Corps to win over the lower officers and men of the Northeast Army.

At that time, the Red Army confronted the Northeast Army across the river. Pan Zhenwu gave full play to the advantages of propaganda work and led the team members to set up a huge archway with pine branches. On the left is the banner "Don't make friends with the enemy" and on the right is the banner "Shanhaiguan" which says "Make your hometown your hometown". Soldiers in the northeast saw it from a distance and felt homesick. Pan Zhenwu also organized propaganda team members to hide under the bunker and sing "Exile Trilogy" and Yellow River Chorus. These propaganda methods have achieved good results, and the soldiers of the Northeast Army collectively wrote to Zhang Xueliang, a young marshal, asking to return to his hometown in Northeast China. 1June, 936, Liu, head of the Red Army Cavalry Corps, entered the Red Army University to study. In order to strengthen the leadership of the Cavalry Corps, Pan Zhenwu was appointed as the head and political commissar of the Cavalry Corps. Soon, in order to establish the base area behind enemy lines, the superior sent Pan Zhenwu to Quyang County, Hebei Province as the county magistrate, and later transferred to Yixian County, Shandong Province, as the political department director of the Lunan Military Region of the Eighth Route Army.

194 1 year 1 month, Pan Zhenwu was ordered to return to Yan' an to study in the military and political college. 1942 transferred to the Central Party School for study. At this time, Pan Zhenwu's life changed.

Make sure a beautiful and stubborn Yan 'an Women's University classmate is your partner.

Farmers' associations have been organized since 18 years old. Life in Pan Zhenwu was turbulent for more than ten years, and it was not until I returned to Yan 'an that I settled down. By this time, he was in his thirties, and he was old enough to get married. I have introduced some people to Pan Zhenwu before, all of whom are members of the Art Troupe, but Pan Zhenwu has never nodded. After arriving in Yan 'an, the ratio of male to female is eighteen to one, so it is not easy to make a girlfriend. Pan Zhenwu was introduced to Feng, a dignified and beautiful student of Yan 'an Women's University.

Feng, a native of xiaoyi city, Shanxi Province, began to do anti-Japanese work in the village from 65438 to 0938. At that time, there was an anti-Japanese National Revolutionary University in their county. After graduating from there, Feng joined the county anti-Japanese government troupe led by the Eighth Route Army. Soon, she heard that there was a women's university in Yan 'an, and she volunteered to study.
