Young anti-Japanese hero. 1929 was born in Shangzhuang Village, Laiyuan County, Hebei Province. During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, Wang Erxiao's hometown was an anti-Japanese base of the Eighth Route Army, which was often "swept" by Japanese devils. Wang Erxiao is a member of the Children's Alliance. He often stands guard for the Eighth Route Army when grazing cattle on the hillside. 1942 10 10/25 (September of the lunar calendar 16), the Japanese came to "mop up" again and got lost when they reached the mountain pass. The enemy saw Wang Erxiao herding cattle on the hillside and asked him to lead the way. Wang Erxiao pretended to obey and went ahead. In order to defend the villagers in hiding, he led the enemy into the ambush circle of the Eighth Route Army. Suddenly, gunshots rang out in all directions. Knowing that the enemy had been cheated, he angrily killed Wang Erxiao with a bayonet. Just then, the Eighth Route Army rushed down from the mountain and wiped out all the enemies.
After Wang Erxiao's death, local soldiers and civilians buried him on the hillside of Liujiazhuang. At that time, Comrade Zhang Shikui, a cadre of Laiyuan Youth Rescue Committee (now a retired cadre in Baoding), got the news and immediately reported it to the Youth Rescue Committee in the Border Region. Shanxi Daily published the news in the first edition. According to this report, the poet Fang Bing and the poet Qi Fu immediately wrote the song "Singing Two Little Boys Playing Cowherd". This song has been sung to this day and has infected countless teenagers. Now, Wang Erxiao's grave is covered with grass. The big stone dyed red by his blood still lies quietly in the ravine. People call it "the bloody stone".
To commemorate the little hero Wang Erxiao, the China Youth Foundation established the Hope Primary School of the Second Primary School in Shangzhuang Village, Laiyuan County, the hometown of the second primary school. Chen Mo, an old writer who participated in the revolution in Yan 'an period, created the revolutionary traditional documentary novel "Young Hero Wang Erxiao".
Lyrics of "Singing Two Little Boys and Cowherd"
Cattle are still grazing on the hillside,
Herdsmen don't know where they are.
He didn't lose his cow because he played too hard,
Wang Erxiao, the boy who herded cattle.
On the morning of September 16,
The enemy swept the canyon,
Covering the posterior organs in the canyon,
Covering thousands of villagers.
At that critical moment,
The enemy is going to the mountain pass,
Lost in a daze,
Grab the penis and let him lead the way.
As the second child, he obediently walked in front.
Bring the enemy into our ambush,
Gunshots were banging around.
The enemy knew that he had been cheated.
The enemy pointed a gun at the second boy,
Fell to death on a big stone,
Our thirteen-year-old Wang Erxiao,
Pity him for dying so miserably.
Cadres and fellow villagers are safe,
He sleeps in the cold mountains,
He has a smile on his face.
His blood is red and blue.
Autumn wind blows through every village,
It spread this touching story,
Every village is full of tears,
Singing "Cowboy".
