Historical evolution

In the late December of 1948, the KMT, who was defeated in the second Xiangfan campaign, temporarily organized the remnant of the first division and fled to Gucheng in an attempt to join the Gucheng County People's Health Corps. Yin Pengfei, the commander of Gucheng County People's Health Corps and the head of the enemy County, was alarmed at the news of the defeat of the Kuomintang troops in the Xiangfan campaign. With more than 200 remnant troops, he attempted to flee to Nanzhang and Baokang mountains through miaotan and Cihe. On the 24th, two groups of disabled soldiers met in miaotan town. When the 86th regiment of the Hannan army, which was ordered to enter Gucheng to take part in the anti raiding campaign, learned the information about the enemy's activities, it decided to take advantage of the enemy's panic and exhaustion to take him by surprise and destroy the enemy. On the afternoon of the 25th, all the officers and men of the 89th regiment arrived at the designated place after trekking along the 60th Huali mountain road. At dusk, the people's Liberation Army, regardless of their fatigue, surrounded miaotan town in three groups to catch turtles in a jar. After two hours of fighting, they destroyed the enemy county government, annihilated several township security forces and the first division of the enemy's temporary division, captured more than 360 enemy county leaders and below, seized a batch of guns, ammunition and materials, and rescued 20 cadres and soldiers detained by the enemy. This battle brought back a large area of Gucheng, marking the end of the whole anti sweep campaign in Hannan. For this reason, the divisional heads of the Hannan army signed the "commendation order" on December 29 to give a circular commendation. Liu Hulan's heroine, second sister Tao. Tao Erjie, whose real name is Tao Zhixiu, was born in 1905 in huangjiagang village, Shengkang town. Because of her fierce nature, daring to say and do, she has become the honorific title of the villagers. After the liberation of Gucheng in July 1948, she broke through the shackles of feudal forces and resolutely took part in the revolutionary work. As a woman cadre in Huanggang District, she organized women to make military clothes, shoes and support for the PLA. She also participated in the struggle against tyranny by bandits in the Qing Dynasty and was praised by the leaders of the county and district for many times. In November 1948, he was arrested by the enemy during the anti raiding campaign. After her arrest, the enemy tortured and tortured her in order to get government weapons, food collection sites and other secrets from her. She always had only one sentence: "I don't know!" The enemy had nothing to do with her. They hung a stone mill and a dung pail around their neck, branded her chest with iron, nailed her fingers to the cupboard, and nailed her toes to the board. But all this did not make second sister Tao yield. On December 24, 1948, the enemy killed her in miaotan village.
