Wudang Taihe and fist passed on
Kung Fu master He Ziyou
During the war years, countless heroes and sons and daughters emerged in our army, among whom there was a female red army instructor named He Ziyou, who not only achieved kung fu in fists and feet, but also drank an astonishing amount of alcohol, and even Xu Shiyou, who was famous for being able to drink, was compared to her. Where did this heroine learn her skills? What legendary story does she have?
He Ziyou
He Ziyou was born on February 5, 1913 in Qingquan Township, Sichuan Province, when China was facing the dilemma of internal and external troubles, and the lives of the people were very difficult, and even having a mouthful of food became a luxury, and He Ziyou was no exception. He Ziyou's family is poor, a large family often eats the last meal without eating, He Ziyou was 10 years old, the family really could not open the pot, in order not to let He Ziyou be starved to death, but also in order to reduce the burden of the family, the father sent He Ziyou to the county boxing room as a handyman.
10-year-old He Ziyou is as thin as bean sprouts, but she is a poor child who works very neatly, and she can do everything she gives her in an orderly manner.
He Ziyou's handyman's boxing room is called Jingwu Boxing Room, because the situation is turbulent, so there are not many people who come to learn boxing, and the boxing room is not famous, but this boxing room is a master like a cloud, there have been guards, assassins, good men in the jianghu, etc., the chief teacher
Li Deyuan
He is also a true disciple of the Wudang Sect, and he is quite famous for his martial arts skills. He Ziyou was not a disciple of the boxing room, so she did not have the opportunity to practice martial arts, but every time she finished the work at hand, she would find a self-meeting to see how others practiced, and she would learn to practice with her. In the boxing room, He Ziyou and a girl of the same age Li Yingying have a good relationship, the two often play together, Li Yingying's father is no one else, it is the head of the head of the teacher Li Deyuan.

After a long time, Li Deyuan noticed He Ziyou who always stayed with his daughter, he felt that although this little girl looked thin and weak, she had a look when she punched, so she tried to test it, and he felt that He Ziyou was a good material for practicing martial arts.
He Ziyou was taken as an apprentice and recognized as a righteous daughter.
Facts have proved that Li Deyuan's vision is not wrong, his requirements for He Ziyou are very strict, but He Ziyou is more strict with himself, no matter what requirements Li Deyuan sets for He Ziyou, He Ziyou will do it, and must do better.
In the blink of an eye, 5 years have passed, He Ziyou is no longer the thin little girl she was, and now she has a resolute gaze and an introverted breath, and has learned more than 30 sets of exercises from Li Deyuan and become a kung fu master.
Li Deyuan was very satisfied with He Ziyou's apprentice, talented and willing to endure hardships, and was a person who could take on great responsibilities, so Li Deyuan taught He Ziyou his famous skills without reservation.
He Ziyou was grateful for his master's trust in himself, practiced every day, and finally succeeded in mastering the stunt, and naturally became the twelfth generation of the Wudang Sect Taihe Gate, with one hand Taihe fist beating tiger tiger, imposing.
When He Ziyou was learning martial arts in the boxing room, the wave of revolution spread to Sichuan, and she had long heard about the deeds of many revolutionary heroes, plus she was an oppressed low-level people, and it was not easy for her to yearn for the revolutionary cause in her heart, so she did not hesitate to join the "Young Pioneers". In the "Young Pioneers", because He Ziyou had a flexible brain and good skills, he quickly stood out from the crowd of team members and completed many cover or reconnaissance tasks brilliantly, which was unanimously praised by everyone.
In 1933, He Ziyou was already 20 years old, that is, in this year, her father was brutally killed by the National Government for participating in the revolution, He Ziyou was very sad, but she was not intimidated, but she strengthened her belief in dedicating herself to the revolutionary cause.
He Ziyou wiped away his tears, remembered his father's unfinished revolutionary ambitions, resolutely joined the Red Army, was incorporated into the Independent Women's Regiment of the Red Fourth Front, and became a female fighter. He Ziyou is full of ambition, if he cannot overthrow the mountain that weighs on the people's heads, then the people will never be able to live a good life, and the one who can lead the people to overthrow the mountain is the Communist Party of China.
In October 1936, He Ziyou, who had been in the army for a long time, finally joined the Communist Party of China as he wished, becoming a glorious communist party member, and He Ziyou's heart surged with blood, and at the same time, he also understood that the burden on his shoulders was even heavier.
Female head of the Red Army
Who says women are inferior to men?
In the army, He Ziyou had a place to show her kung fu, plus she was willing to work hard, and soon practiced accurate marksmanship.
Because of years of practicing martial arts, He Ziyou's agility was far better than ordinary people, which allowed her to shoot with both hands and beat the enemy in battle, and it didn't take long for the prestige of "Double Gun He Girl" to spread.
It is important for the marching army to have a good skill, and after He Ziyou showed his superb martial arts, the party organization decided to let her take the position
Head of the martial arts of the Women's Independent Regiment
, use their own strengths to teach everyone to learn martial arts. He Ziyou liked his task very much, often in his spare time to organize fighters to practice martial arts, most of the Red Fourth Front at that time would have some fist and foot kung fu and knives, guns and sticks, everyone admired He Ziyou's outstretched hand, honored her as "He Tie Fist".
During the Long March, the red army's combat conditions were extremely difficult, the main job of the women's independent regiment was to be responsible for the logistics of the troops, logistics is much safer than the front line, but He Ziyou is not afraid to fight with the enemy, staying in the logistics unit is not what she wants, she wants to go into battle to kill the enemy. He Ziyou asked the organization for instructions several times and asked the organization to transfer itself to the front line, and the organization finally agreed to He Ziyou's request, and after returning to the front line, He Ziyou cherished this hard-won opportunity to fight, and every time he rushed to the front line, the enemy he killed could not lift his head in frustration.
Once, the Red Army troops wanted to pass through a big mountain, but the mountain road was occupied by bandits, and the bandits clamored for the Red Army to leave behind "road money", or not to think about it. In order to let the troops cross the mountain as soon as possible at the lowest cost, the regimental commander took He Ziyou to negotiate with the bandits, and the bandit leader had heard of He Ziyou's name, but he had never believed how powerful such a woman could be.
So he proposed to compete with He Ziyou, and if He Ziyou won, he would give way to the Red Army troops
。

The leader of the bandits occupied the mountain as the king, and there was no shortage of things to do to block the road, naturally there were two brushes, and he looked tall and tall, and his body size was far better than He Ziyou, and this contest looked unfair.
He Ziyou had no fear, and happily agreed to the bandit leader's request, she had been practicing martial arts in the boxing room for many years, and had experienced hundreds of battles in the team, and was not afraid to compete with the bandit leader at all. Sure enough, after the competition began, watching the strong bandit leader fall behind he Ziyou without surviving a few moves under he Ziyou, a large circle of people watched, the bandit leader felt that his face could not be hung up, and he wanted to win He Ziyou more, but the more he rushed to break, the more he broke, and one did not pay attention to being thrown to the ground by He Ziyou and lost the test.
The bandit leader reluctantly gave way to the mountain road, and the large red army was able to pass smoothly, but he really could not swallow this breath, and sent people to chase after him in violation of his promise, at this time He Ziyou was falling behind the line, with a dozen wounded female soldiers around him. The bandits were immediately proud when they saw this scene, and rushed up on horseback to divide the group into several parts, and brandished a large knife around He Ziyou.
The female soldiers were injured, and the task of dealing with the bandits could only be entrusted to He Ziyou, who looked calm and did not panic at all, and saw the opportunity to shoot the bandits on horseback to the ground with three moves in a row, and the other female soldiers immediately controlled the bandits, and the bandits became prisoners.
When the other bandits saw that the accomplices were powerless under He Ziyou's hands, they were suddenly shocked, remembering that even the boss was not He Ziyou's opponent, and felt even more frightened, so they left their captured companions to be birds and beasts and scattered.
He Ziyou is not only commendable in skill, but also far better in courage than ordinary people, in the face of danger, he did not blindly use brute force, but saw the opportunity to kill chickens and monkeys, and successfully broke the siege for his comrades-in-arms and himself.
He Ziyou's excellence has been appreciated by the organization, and at the same time, she has also received a sincere feeling. There was a director of the Red Army named Zhou Zikun, he listened to He Ziyou's deeds and admired it, he always wanted to see this heroine in person, and after the victory of the Red Fourth Front, Zhou Zikun finally got what he wanted to know He Ziyou, and was deeply attracted by He Ziyou. One day, a leader of the Red Fourth Front army found He Ziyou and asked her, "Captain He Platoon, do you have a favorite person?" Is it time to think about lifelong events, what do you think of Zhou Zikun? ”
He Ziyou originally thought that the leader was looking for her to issue a new task, but when he heard this, he suddenly blushed and pushed back: "Director, I don't think about this now, the soldiers are still waiting for me to train, so I will go first." Although He Ziyou politely refused the leader's matchmaking, she also silently took Zhou Zikun to heart.
The director of the Red Fourth Front intended to match Zhou Zikun and He Ziyou, often saying that he was too busy to open his body when He Ziyou reported to himself, so he Ziyou reported to Zhou Zikun, and He Ziyou also had more contact opportunities with Zhou Zikun.
With more contact, He Ziyou had an understanding of Zhou Zikun, and slowly developed a good feeling for Zhou Zikun, but now is the critical period of the revolution, and she does not want to be distracted because of her children's love.
Until the end of the Long March in 1937, when the Red Army established a revolutionary base area in Yan'an, Zhou Zikun expressed his heart to He Ziyou.
Everyone knows that Zhou Zikun has liked He Ziyou for a long time, and he has expressed his blessings for the two of them coming together, and the organization has also approved the marriage of the two, and held a simple and solemn wedding for them in Yan'an.
Zhou Zikun
It was simple because the conditions at that time were limited, and everyone could only try their best to prepare what they needed for the wedding; it was solemn because more than 20 leaders of our army, including Comrades Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai, came to attend the ceremony, and Comrade Mao Zedong also served as the main marriage person and gave a fountain pen as a gift.
Xu Shiyou also attended the wedding, and he also ridiculed Zhou Zikun that the Red Army on the one hand was really brave and dared to marry He Ziyou, and in this regard, the Red Army could not do it, and everyone was amused by Xu Shiyou.
After marriage, Zhou Zikun and He Ziyou had a harmonious relationship and affection, but Zhou Zikun was very busy with several jobs, and He Ziyou was also the leader of the Red Army clothing factory, and the two did not have much time to stay together. After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan, Zhou Zikun led more than 30 cadres to southern Anhui to open up and preside over new work, and He Ziyou also came to southern Anhui in 1938 to serve as a platoon leader in the New Fourth Army, and the husband and wife were reunited. In 1939, the first child of the two was born, and Zhou Zikun looked at his swaddled daughter excitedly and felt that the happiest thing in life was this.
However, the good times did not last long, in 1941, the Anhui Southern Incident broke out, the New Fourth Army suffered heavy losses, the commander Ye Ting was captured, Zhou Zikun and others broke through to the bee cave in Jing County, Anhui Province, but unfortunately were killed because of the betrayal of traitors.
At this time, He Ziyou was pregnant with her second child, and when she heard the news, she was very sad and eager to immediately go to the battlefield to hand blade the enemy. After giving birth to a child, He Ziyou entrusted the two children together to the comrades in the rear and continued to participate in the revolutionary work, not only for his own responsibility, but also for the legacy of his husband, such a strong fighter, admirable.

Talk to Xu Shiyou
He Ziyou let Xu Shiyou bow to the wind?
He Ziyou's life is magnificent, he has heroically killed the enemy on the battlefield, he has also met true love in the artillery fire, he has had the sweetness of love, and he has also suffered the pain of losing his relatives, these experiences have made He Ziyou's experience more legendary.
We all know that the founding general Xu Shiyou was born in Shaolin, learned a good skill, and loves to drink, can drink, is a "big barrel", but Xu Shiyou has not been able to distinguish between he and He Ziyou in these two aspects.
Xu Shiyou
Xu Shiyou and He Ziyou are both practicing family members, the warriors know that after they know, they will coax the two to compete, Xu Shiyou naturally will not be afraid, He Ziyou did not shirk, the day of the competition, the ring was full of people, each showing an excited expression. Xu Shiyou and He Ziyou opened the posture after a few moves, both felt that the strength of the other party should not be underestimated, if they used their full strength, they would be beaten into the hospital, because they both retained their strength. After several rounds, Xu Shiyou and He Ziyou fought inextricably, and Xu Shiyou did not have any results until he went on like this, so he took the initiative to stop and admit defeat, and everyone laughed and said: "Old Xu you can't do it!" ”
Xu Shiyou was not ashamed, but sincerely held his fist to He Ziyou and said, "Bow downwind." ”
After this contest, Xu Shiyou and He Ziyou did not fight and did not know each other, the two gradually became acquainted, once Xu Shiyou's wife had a birthday, specially invited He Ziyou to come, Xu Shiyou saw the wine hungry worm attack, asked He Ziyou whether he dared to compare the amount of wine with him, He Ziyou happily agreed. At first, the two drank with glasses, but later felt unhappy, so they poured the wine into the basin, and the two took the steamed bun and dipped it in wine and began to eat.
Xu Shiyou's wife came to persuade the two to drink less, but Xu Shiyou said that if he really drank, he was afraid that he would not be able to drink He Ziyou.
He Ziyou's martial arts and alcohol are not inferior to men's children, so that Xu Shiyou can't help but be convinced, and the chivalrous spirit on his body is even more admirable, worthy of being a heroine.
epilogue
He Ziyou had many titles in her life, such as "He Tie Fist", "Double Gun He Girl", "Female Godhead", etc., but for herself, she only had one title, that is, revolutionary fighter.
