Biography
Came from the Ukrainian peasants of the Semirechensk region . Among the Kazakhs, they had the nickname "Kukaly" [1] . It is generally accepted that he was born in the village of Gavrilovka ... Despite the well-known prosperity, the Semirechye peasant newcomers in 1917, for the most part, took the side of the Bolsheviks [2] , believing them to be unrealizable promises.
In official Soviet biographies they wrote about him as "a former soldier of the Russian tsarist army, who immediately sided with the Bolsheviks." From which it logically followed that Karp Meistruk was a participant in the First World War . But there are already certain doubts. Since the Russians (including the “Great Russians”, “Little Russians” [3] and Belarusians) the natives of Turkestan were not drafted into the tsarist army. Those. one out of two:
- Either Maistruk was not born in Kopal County, but was brought as a child from Ukraine;
- Or he was not a soldier of the Russian tsarist army.
Most likely, the first ...
Battle Path of the 1st Semirechensky Red Guard Regiment
In 1917, the vast majority of Semirechye peasant settlers took the side of the Bolsheviks - in defiance of the state and legal activity of the Semirechensk Cossack Army (SMKV). In November 1917, at a congress of Soviets of the Kopala County [4], he delivered a speech against the recently overthrown Provisional Government “Karp Maistruk recently returned from the front”.
From the Gavrilov peasants formed at the beginning of 1918 the Red Guard detachment, which fought on the Northern Semirechensky Front against the division of Ataman Annenkov . The detachment took an active part in the Cherkasy defense of 1918-1919 .
In 1920, his detachment was reorganized into the 1st Semirechensky regiment and sent to the Ferghana Valley , then to the sands near Bukhara : to fight the armed opposition of the Soviet regime (in the terminology of those years, to fight “against the Basmachi ”). After that, the 1st Semirechensky regiment was transferred to the territory of the former Khiva Khanate , recently occupied by the Bolsheviks.
On April 19, 1921, in the heavy battle that the regiment waged near Khiva , near the Bezerkent fortress, during the attack, he was mortally wounded. Fellow countrymen fellow soldiers brought the remains of their commander over a thousand kilometers and buried them in a square in the center of Gavrilovka [5] . The inscription was made on the monument: “To the commander of the 1st Semirechensky Red Guard Regiment, Maystryuk Karp Lukyanovich and his fighting friends. Eternal glory to the fighters who fell for the power of the Soviets. ”
Hero's Memory
Now the grave is within the boundaries of the Central Park of Culture and Culture. One of the streets of Taldykorgan, bears the name of K.L. Maystryuka.
In Soviet times, K.L. Maistruk stood out for a large exposition, which included a portrait of the hero, a description of his military and life path, documents, books, and other materials. But with the collapse of the USSR and the change in state policy of Kazakhstan, the exposition was liquidated, and the museum itself was transformed into the house-museum of Ilyas Dzhansugurov.
The Komsomol squad of one of the city’s schools (secondary school named after A.S. Makarenko, now secondary school No. 6) also bore the name of Karp Maystryuk.
