On Chetian dialect

Are you a plucker?

Pick all tie with!

Li Jin, I'm good at business!

It's so fast. I'm finished.

This is Chetian dialect. Chetian dialect is also Hakka dialect, but it is different from Meizhou Hakka dialect. In China, it is generally believed that Meizhou Hakka dialect is the authentic Hakka language. In fact, the Hakka people live in far more than Meizhou Hakka dialect.

One side of the landscape, one side of the people, car field people, drink car field water, talk about car field. Chetian dialect, as a kind of Hakka language, is different from other Hakka dialects in addition to its similarities

It's hard to work today

In fact, in Chetian dialect, there are many spoken languages that can't be written in Chinese characters. They only have pronunciation and no characters. I'm afraid only Chetian dialect has this kind of characteristics. If we compare Chetian dialect with Putonghua, we can also find that many spoken Chinese in Chetian dialect are much more concise and clear than Putonghua.

It is not easy to explore the history of Chetian dialect. Chetian people want to know the history of Chetian dialect, such as the origin of history, how it evolved and why it formed such a unique language, but they can't talk about it. Looking for materials, historical materials, genealogy? Listen to folk songs and visit today's old people? Or to the county archives to find historical origins? I'm afraid the only one who really understands the history of Chetian dialect is the old Chetian people.

Chetian Uprising

In January 1949, the Guangdong Jiangxi Hunan border column of the Chinese people's Liberation Army was officially established. The original Guangdong Jiangxi border detachment was renamed Dongjiang second detachment of the Guangdong Jiangxi Hunan border column, which is referred to as "Dongjiang second detachment". In order to cooperate with the army's going south and accelerate the liberation of Guangdong, the Party committee of the Jiulian region of the Communist Party of China instructed the establishment of a vast number of joint guerrilla bases in Heping, Lianping, Longchuan, Heyuan, Xingning and Western Wuhua counties in the Jiulian region and in Gannan region of Jiangxi Province.

To this end, commander Zheng Qun of the second East detachment led the main third and sixth regiments (leader Lin Jingqiu and political commissar Luo Weiqiang) to move from Hexi to northeast Heping, northern Longchuan and southern Jiangxi, actively annihilating the Kuomintang's stubborn army and disintegrating the local Kuomintang's rural regime and joint defense team. Under the impetus and influence of our strong political offensive and the "five battles and five victories" of the two East branches, the stubborn Kuomintang troops were trapped in the turrets where our army went, and did not dare to act rashly.

Many of the joint defense teams that were forced to be set up and the upper echelons of the District, township and Baotou governments showed negative and wavering. Some of them were disbanded secretly and voluntarily. Many of them sent people to get in touch with us and provide secret information. Some of them wanted to revolt as soon as possible and make contributions to the people. At that time, the leaders of the second East branch and the sixth regiment could see that they could take the lead in the border areas of Longchuan and Heping County (including Heping's Guzhai, pengzhai, an'ao, beidun, Yousheng, Dongshui, Xiache, Changtang, Qingzhou, Reshui, Chetian, Wuding, Huangbu, Chiguang, Beiling, Longmu, Huangshi and other towns in northern Sichuan in Longchuan, and Dingnan, Longnan, QUANNAN and other counties in Jiangxi, which are close to Guangdong) We have established a vast base area for joint development.

The CPC Jiulian prefectural committee and the second East detachment decided to establish the CPC Longchuan and Pingbian Working Committee, which is composed of Luo Yangwen, deputy secretary and propaganda member of Li Qun, member of Chen Rongzhang, member of Liang Xixiang and leader of the underground party, and member of Lin Ruo. In order to achieve this goal and put forward plans and measures, Longhe border Working Committee held several special meetings.

First meeting

The first meeting was held in shangbankeng, Guzhai Town, Heping County. Besides Wen, Li Qun, Chen Rongzhang, Lin Ruo and Liang Xixiang, he Youda, Ling Chuntao, Peng wanqin, Xie Zitao and Xiao Ribao also attended the meeting. The meeting was presided over by Comrade Luo Yangwen, who conveyed the report of the superior on the current good situation and why we should do a good job in the car uprising. I conveyed the plan of how to liberate Guzhai, an'ao and other towns. The meeting divided the work. Comrade Luo Yangwen, Peng wanqin, Xie Zitao and other comrades went back to North Sichuan to make preparations for the "car uprising"; I led Zheng Xin on the order of the sixth regiment of the second East detachment Qiang, Li Genlian (the main force of the sixth regiment) and Liu Jin's squadron liberated Guzhai, an'ao and other places first after the Spring Festival; Comrade Lin Ruo led Liu Linshan, a military team, to go to Yousheng, get off the train, Changtang and other places. In the middle of the night of March 1, 1949, we liberated Guzhai, an'ao tianyuzhai and other townships without firing a single shot. We captured more than 60 Kuomintang Township heads, an'ao Township heads, joint defense directors and team members, and seized more than 60 rifles and a batch of ammunition.

After opening the warehouse and distributing the grain to the people nearby, and publicizing the good situation to the broad masses, the KMT will lose and our army will win, the truth of overthrowing the reactionary rule of the KMT and the policies of "reducing rent and interest", "dividing the fields and grain", "opposing the three levies", "three disciplines, and eight points of attention" implemented by our army, our army took the initiative to withdraw from the ancient village and follow the six regiments to fight in the peaceful northeast and Longchuan In the northern area, they took the initiative to crack down on the KMT's District, township, and Bao regimes and joint defense strongholds in this area. At that time, some of them persisted in the struggle in northern Sichuan
