The first half of my life

stay

In Jiaozuo general strike movement

from a poor family, Li Guanghan's father was recruited to work on Daoqing railway in Jiaozuo, Henan Province. The whole family immediately settled in Jiaozuo and lived on his father's meager salary. in the autumn of 1924, his father died of illness and his family life was lost. His mother, younger brother and sister had to go back to their hometown. He moved to the dormitory of railway workers in Nanchang alone and lived with fellow villagers Zhang Kexin and Jiang Tian. Later, introduced by his father's friends, he worked as an apprentice in Zhang Huyuan's contract cabinet in Lifeng coal mine. He kept coal accounts and miscellaneous accounts for people working in the coal mine every day. He earned six yuan a month and barely made a living. One day in June 1925, Zhang Kexin and Jiang Tian led a reading man in a long shirt to Zhang Huyuan's contract cabinet in Lifeng coal mine to meet him. They introduced him to Mr. Luo, who was working as a teacher with Zhang kundi at Jiaozuo railway workers' night school. They asked Li Guanghan to introduce the underground foremen (each foreman led about 20 or 30 people to dig coal underground), and he did so. Then several foremen secretly organized miners to listen to them tell the revolutionary truth in the field. After many contacts, he learned that Mr. Luo Siwei, a Hubei native and a college student, openly set up night schools to teach workers culture. In fact, he spread Marxism Leninism and inspired the consciousness of the working class. Later, he was killed by Xia Douyin in the Hunan horse day incident. He was less than 18 years old at that time, and Comrade Luo Siwei liked him very much. After that, Liu Changyan (from Hunan, who had worked under the leadership of Mao Zedong and Liu Shaoqi in Anyuan coal mine), Yang Jieren (from Qinyang, Henan, who was a part-time student studying in France) and Wu Guangrong successively went to Lifeng coal mine to find him, contact the foreman, and organize the miners to attend classes. Every time, he tried every means to successfully complete the tasks assigned by Mr. Luo. Slowly understand the class oppression, realize that only resistance, there is a way out, Mr. Luo in the hearts of the miners lit a lamp of hope. At that time, the life of miners was very difficult. They could only buy one or two catties of noodles per day. The imperialists (British run coal mines) and capitalists only knew how to extract the sweat of workers. There was no labor protection under the mines, and there was little or no compensation for workers' casualties. In addition, the miners had to be bullied, beaten, abused, oppressed and exploited by the foreman. In this case, under the influence of the May 30th strike in Shanghai, inspired by Luo Siwei and other comrades, the anti imperialist strike in Jiaozuo was launched in July 1925. Comrade Mao Zedong also attached great importance to this struggle event, which was elaborated in the volume of selected works of Mao Zedong. The strike was held in support of the workers' anti imperialist strike in Shanghai (the May 30th strike). Therefore, the workers who took part in the strike were mainly more than 20000 coal miners in the "Fu company" coal mine run by British capitalists. At that time, the situation was complicated. The strike took place in Jiaozuo City, Henan Province. Like Feng Yuxiang's first army, Yue Weijun's second army was called the national army and sympathized with the national revolution and the Kuomintang. There is a battalion in yuebu in Jiaozuo City. They take a neutral attitude towards the workers' strike. They don't care about the workers' strike. But they dare not exert pressure on foreign capitalists. The capitalists of Zhongyuan coal mine also supported the anti imperialist strike of the workers in Fu company, but they only mentioned the slogan of "taking back the mining rights" instead of the slogan of "implementing the eight hour working system" to improve the workers' benefits. During the strike, coal miners organized trade unions (I can't remember exactly when they organized them), and workers' pickets patrolled and kept order. Organized small demonstrations. At that time, students of the mining university run by the British capitalist "Fu company" held a strike, and businessmen in the city held a strike and donated money to support the strike of coal miners. After the strike, Zhang Huyuan, the head contractor, found that Li Guanghan was connected with the strike and was a suspect, so he was removed. Introduced by Luo Siwei and other comrades, he went to work in the Shanghai case support association of all walks of life in Jiaozuo. Luo Siwei and other comrades also worked in Jiaozuo Mining University, absorbing Wu Huizhi, Zhou Fuyuan and others to participate in the Communist Party organization, and joined the Shanghai case support Committee. He worked in Beichang (the wells of the capitalists in Yingkuang). Guan Yongfu (Guan Youlin, currently director of the Education Department of Huaxian No.1 Middle School) and other comrades were recruited to join the party. Jiaozuo's chambers of Commerce, schools and other organizations participated in the Shanghai case support Committee and directly assisted the workers in the strike. Luo Siwei and others also set up the Kuomintang (left wing) municipal Party headquarters in Jiaozuo to facilitate our party's work. He and other comrades, such as Qin Menghu and Guan Yongfu, went to look after the Jiaozuo Municipal Party headquarters. In August of the same year, Luo Siwei and Zhang Kexin introduced him to join the Communist Party of China. When the anti imperialist strike in Jiaozuo coal mine reached its climax, the foreign capitalists fled and took refuge in Tianjin. There was no target for negotiation. At that time, workers' life was extremely difficult. In order to support the strike, in addition to a part of the funds donated by Jiaozuo's ethnic business circles to temporarily subsidize the workers, the party organization organized eight young workers (including Zhang Kexin, Jiangtian, Qin Menghu, Guan Yongfu, Zhang Ruitian, mu Xiangshun, Li Mingqiu, etc.) to form a fund-raising propaganda team and went out to Zhengzhou, Luoyang, Xinyang, Anyang, Xinxiang, Zhumadian and other cities to carry out fund-raising activities. Under the leadership of Comrade Luo Siwei, they went to Zhengzhou Jinghan Railway General Union and met Wang Hebo (Chairman of the Union), Huang pingwan, Luo Zhanglong, Wang Ruofei and his wife Li Peizhi. Comrade Luo Siwei reported to them his intention to come and asked for support. Under the arrangement of the railway trade union and the cotton mill trade union, they went to all factories and all walks of life in Zhengzhou to carry out publicity and fund-raising activities. After the introduction of the Federation of trade unions, they went to Luoyang, Xinyang, Xinxiang, Anyang and other places to conduct publicity and fund-raising activities with the assistance of local trade unions. The money collected was remitted by local trade unions to the Shanghai case support association of Jiaozuo City. When they were publicizing and collecting donations in Longting, Kaifeng, Henan governor Yue Weijun sent Secretary General Li Jingzhai (from the Kuomintang) to hold a banquet to receive the visiting Soviets. When the Soviets saw that some of their young people were wearing shirts marked with "blue sky and white sun" in the front and back of China, and their lower bodies were wearing work clothes and red hats. Their clothes were different, they were asked by the translators. Knowing that it was the striking workers in Jiaozuo coal mine who sent out a propaganda team for collecting donations, the Soviet Union happily picked up some of their young people and took pictures with them. In the evening, the Soviets also invited them to talk in the reception room of Longting, accompanied by Li Jingzhai, Secretary General of the office of the Communist Party of China, and translated by Wang Xili (Wang speaks Beijing dialect fluently). These Soviets sympathized with the left wing of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party of China, and extended their thumbs to praise the heroic fighting spirit of the Chinese working class. The publicity and fund-raising activities of the publicity team reached a climax. They returned to Jiaozuo with the sympathy and support of workers and people from all walks of life. At this time, the strike was still deadlocked and there was no hope of a solution. The party organizations began to consider the way out for their young Party members. First, they planned to send them to the Xuebing team of Sun Yue (commander of the National Third Army, who was inclined to the national revolution at that time). After hearing that the Xuebing team could not be established, they introduced them to Kaifeng to meet Comrade Wang Ruofei (then Secretary of the special committee of the Henan Shaanxi region). After being introduced by the Party committee of the Henan Shaanxi region, they were sent to Huangpu Military Academy to study the army It's a matter of time.

During the great revolution,

Communists play an important role in Huangpu Military Academy

In October 1925, Li Guanghan came to the Huangpu Military Academy. He was under 18 years old and knew little about it. According to the old comrades at that time, Sun Yat Sen established the Huangpu Military Academy in May 1924 with the help of the Communist Party of China and the Soviet Union after he established the three major policies of uniting Russia, the Communist Party of China and supporting workers and peasants. Sun Yat Sen appointed Chiang Kai Shek as the president and Liao Zhongkai as the party representative. (after Liao was assassinated in August 1925, Wang Jingwei was the party representative. After the "Zhongshan ship incident", the contradiction between Jiang and Wang became clear. Wang went abroad in order to avoid Chiang Kai Shek and later took Comrade Zhou Enlai as the representative of the party. Comrade Zhou Enlai is the director of the political department, Deng Yanda and Wang Boling are the education directors, general Gallen of the Soviet Union is the adviser, and Zhang Tailei is the translator. After Comrade Zhou Enlai mastered the work of the Political Department of the military academy, he worked hard with his outstanding ability and soon improved the prestige of our party and political work. Party members and cadres of military academies are called in Guangzhou every week
