Xinzhuang │ Poetry Club │ Little Yan 'an in Eastern Shanxi written by Zhao Quansheng, a fellow villager in Yangquan.

The weather is fine, although the temperature is rising, but the cool breeze is blowing gently, which makes people feel particularly comfortable. Outside the window, a bright future, a vibrant spring came to the world irresistibly.

Go out of Yangquan North, take Xincheng Avenue, and go east to Sanjiao. The road is not wide, but the cement road is easy to walk. On one side of the road, there is a river. The river is small, but it flows happily. That is the famous Wenhe River.

We passed several villages, such as Han Zhuang, Mazhuang and Xiaozhuang, and arrived at Xinzhuang Village in more than half an hour.

Opposite the parking lot is the "Anti-Japanese War Tunnel", which is half a man's height and requires a cat to walk around his waist. The tunnel is not long, but it has turned several times. For every mouth, there are several mouths. Unfamiliar people will come to a dead end. In about ten minutes, we will come out from another exit.

Out of the ground, I suddenly felt suddenly enlightened and breathed smoothly.

Looking up at the sunny and clear skies in Wan Li, I am filled with emotion: We are now living in a peaceful era, and everything is safe, so going down the tunnel is an experience, and going up to the ground is an enjoyment.

When I was a child, I often watched the movie Tunnel Warfare. The Eighth Route Army and militia used tunnels to fight the devils. The scene was really exciting.

It is said that during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, villagers in Xinzhuang dug four tunnels at different locations in the village to hide things or food in response to frequent Japanese raids. One is Jingjia in the east of the village, and the villagers call it "Mopan Cave". One is in the north of the village, at the home of Liu Cunfu, the fifth team. One is in the sixth team field on the west side of the village. One is in the east of the village, and the villagers call it "filial piety kiln", which has the largest scale and reasonable design. In order to prevent the enemy from using poisonous gas or smoke after discovering land, effective preventive facilities such as "big well turn" and "small well turn" were cleverly designed in the tunnel. At the same time, several exits are designed in different directions. If the enemy enters the tunnel, it can confuse the enemy and reduce casualties. ?

We came to the ancient pagoda tree with a sign hanging on it. This pagoda tree has a history of 1200 years. 1008 was the first year of the auspicious symbol of Dazhong in Song Zhenzong, northern China. In other words, this locust tree was planted in the Northern Song Dynasty. In front of the parking lot, there is a stone tablet awarded by the provincial government to Xinzhuang Village, a famous historical and cultural village in Shanxi Province. Xinzhuang village has a long history and is thick.

Approaching Gukuiya, the trunk of Gukuiya is so thick that both of them can't close their arms. Cang Sang's bark is mottled, but its branches are sparse. It has not sprouted and blossomed yet. Maybe Gukuiya is absorbing water and storing energy in it, and will soon bloom white and fragrant Sophora japonica, and put on green clothes to show her eternal charm to the world.

There are no red cloth, red stripes and other hanging objects on the locust tree, and there is no incense.

Remember that there is an old locust tree on Xiguan Road. There are common hanging objects such as red cloth and red stripes when passing by, which are very conspicuous. It is said that ordinary people regard the ancient shame of the past as an aura fairy and pray for the blessing of the gods with red cloth or red stripes. It stands to reason that ordinary people have this idea, but they can't see this superstition in Xinzhuang, which is deep in this mountain.

In ancient Huaidong, there are images and introductions of anti-Japanese heroes who grew up out of Xinzhuang. The first one is Liu Hongda. Liu Hongda was the first county magistrate of Pingding (Lubei) County in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period. Liu Hongda's lover, Dou Chunfang, successively served as the leader of women's organizations in Pingding to Taiyuan, and Liu Hongda's nephew, Xu Guangxian, served as the director of Pingding Military Committee. After liberation, all three of them were promoted to state-level cadres, honest people and pillars of the country. During the Anti-Japanese War, 54 warm-blooded youths in Xinzhuang Village bravely joined the army, among which 15 heroes died for their country, and the people of Xinzhuang delivered 1 10,000 Jin rations for the front. In addition, there are 14 unknown foreign martyrs buried in the farmland outside Xinzhuang village. 1952 Xinzhuang Village transformed Wudao Temple, which faced with ancient shame, into a martyrs' shrine, and set up a monument to revolutionary martyrs in the shrine.

Yue Yong, a revolutionary martyr, was most moved by his heroic deeds. In those days. In the face of torture by Japanese devils, Yue Yong died and never surrendered. After 43 days of inhuman torture, he was nailed to the door panel with seven inches by the enemy and sacrificed heroically. When he died, he said to his relatives who were taken hostage by the enemy, "Don't be afraid, be a China person with backbone." .

Stroking the brick wall full of bullet holes, staring at the towering watchtower, thinking about the front-line fire of the anti-Japanese war that year, as if smelling fierce smoke and seeing countless anti-Japanese people fighting for their country.

Xinzhuang village farmhouse hotel, the father of our invited friend Liu Ermiao, a veteran who served in the 38th Army of Xinzhuang village in the 1970s, had dinner together. The old man is strong and talkative. The old man said that people in Xinzhuang village are simple. During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, they didn't eat or drink, but they also sent food and drinks to the Eighth Route Army. He said that Liu Huandou, a patriotic gentleman who once shocked China and foreign countries, was from Xinzhuang Village. When the old man was a soldier, he drew satirical cartoons and was praised by his superiors. There is a warm river in front of the village. The current is fast, but there is no well water. I asked the old man that every household in Xinzhuang village still eats cellar water and there is no well. The village director explained that for many years, village cadres only paid attention to the development of tourism and did not put drilling wells on the agenda. He just took office and is making plans. When the village is stable, he will apply to his superiors for drilling wells and make sure that the villagers drink clean and safe water. ",
