The water in my hometown is fine and silent
text / Jia Youying
My hometown, Wujin Daixi Town, Changzhou, is adjacent to Taihu Lake in Wuxi in the south and Yangshan, the hometown of peaches in the east. The Xili Cao Canal that passes through the town is winding and winding, so since ancient times, the boats and oars are busy, the water is rich, and the fish are beautiful. The deliciousness of Daixi Qingyu is famous far and wide.
In my memory, the sound of the boat shaking is still heard, and my parents have enough money to traffic in piglets from here. The ancient wooden building once built along the river still has warm memories. The small figure of my friends when I was young was looking for a window to the mysterious world in the distance.
When I walked out of my hometown, I was a young girl full of spiritual energy. When I returned, I had experienced the dust of time and had less transparency when I was young, but I still pursued beauty with only a little ideal. By chance, Shen Chaoyang, the same village, is now the secretary of Qujia Village in the neighboring village. The story he told evokes my hometown love. This familiar land, small bridges, flowing water, bright moon and breeze will always be my lifelong concern. The land washed by clear water has nurtured the spirituality of water. The villagers are gentle and tolerant. They work hard day after day to raise us. The granary of Jiangnan has also made great contributions to the country. The township enterprises here have developed unprecedentedly in reform and opening up. Although water quality was once polluted, through unremitting governance, it was a beautiful scenery with clear water and blue sky.
My impression of my hometown is only a beautiful small countryside, where the people here are hardworking, simple and ordinary and law-abiding. When I look at the history of the village, I realized that Dai Xi also had civil servants and military generals. My fellow villager Zhao Yi was a famous scholar in the Qing Dynasty. His poem "There are talents in the country and the country, and each has been in charge of the style for hundreds of years" is famous all over the world. "Miscellaneous Poems on the Mountain" has a profound artistic conception, "The mountain clouds rise and the raindrops float in an instant. I know that the clouds turn into rain, and there is no need to reach the sky. Only a hundred feet away, it will turn into sweet and storm. Look at the thin clouds, the light shadow is like apart gauze. Since this rain, there are still red suns high." The clouds and rains change and sprinkle sweet rain, and when you stand at a high place, you can see the red sun at the beginning. The poet's realm can be seen. As a historian, his book "Notes on Twenty Histories" and "Notes on Twenty Histories" by Qian Daxin, "Twenty-two Histories" by Wang Mingsheng, are the three major historical works of the Qing Dynasty.
My hometown is not short of heroic people. Wang Zheng, who started his career on half of the radio station, was originally named Wu Renjian. He was born on July 3, 1909 in Daixi Township, Wujin District, Changzhou City. He is the only founding lieutenant general in Jiangsu Province. He was a brave general in the spy war. He was a hero in the long journey of the Red Army wisdomly captured the enemy's secret code during the Long March, and was affectionately called Qianliyan and Shunfenger . In the anti-encirclement and suppression, the War of Resistance Against Japan, the War of Liberation and the War of Resistance and Aid Korea, we collected intelligence and achieved great achievements with our wisdom and indomitable spirit. In the 1960s, the advanced U-2 reconnaissance aircraft of the United States invaded my country's airspace many times. General Wang Zheng and his comrades used smart tricks to shoot down five ∪-2 fighter jets in succession. He was praised by Mao Zedong as the founder of our army's communications industry. The peace and stability of the motherland embodies his lifelong efforts, and his outstanding achievements will be recorded in history forever.
The stream in my hometown flows quietly, but the power forward surges under the water, and it rushes silently towards the river. Secretary Shen Chaoyang, who is a soldier, unfolds the red memory of my hometown to me. No. 12 and No. 13, Qujia Village, an old house with three white walls and black tiles, is like an old man who has experienced the dust of time telling people the unyielding history. The monument erected in front of the house "The former site of the General Command of the Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army in Jiangnan" always reminds the world that a story that has been recorded in history has happened here.
Japanese war of aggression against China , that unbearable past record the unprecedented catastrophe and shame of the Chinese nation. After the July 7 Incident, the Japanese invading army ruthlessly swept across China, burning, killing, looting, and robbing miserable creatures. Shanghai was lost and Jiangnan fell. The invading army easily occupied Nanjing and launched a crazy massacre against the people of Nanjing. The undead of hundreds of thousands of people were even worse than the shame of Jingkang . Their evil deeds challenged the bottom line of human nature. As the country survives and falls, countless heroes embark on the struggle against the invaders. They are torches burning in the dark, illuminating the dark world. The water town also ignited fires and sparked the south of the Yangtze River.
In that darkest era, the people of Jiangnan water townspeople were living in poverty. Luoyang and Daixi area have ignited anti-Japanese fires. Mass anti-Japanese groups such as the "Agricultural Anti-Japanese Association", "Youth Anti-Japanese Association", "Women's Anti-Japanese National Liberation Pioneer" mainly composed of primary school teachers have been established, creating a reliable assembly site for the New Fourth Army to advance eastward. This is also the earliest anti-Japanese guerrilla base created in the southern region of Wujin .
In the winter of 1938, He Kexi, deputy commander of the Third Route Army of the "Jiangjiang Anti-Japanese" was sent by the party to carry out united front work in Daixi area, and successively established transportation stations and intelligence networks in Daixi. In January 1939, when the "Jiang Anti-Japanese" Third Route Army carried out anti-Japanese activities in Daixi and Luoyang areas, the commander of the First Detachment of the New Fourth Army, Chen Yi and Zhang, sent Chief of Staff Hu Fajian to lead the guerrilla war behind enemy lines, and at the same time, Xu Xukui was appointed as the chief of staff of the "Jiang Anti-Japanese" Third Route Army to Daixi and Luoyang to guide anti-Japanese activities. People in Luoyang and Daixi areas responded positively and joined the anti-Japanese and national salvation movement.
0 The glorious history of the Anti-Japanese War in May 1939 has written a strong mark in my hometown. That year, Xu Teli (from Cen Village, Luoyang), a correspondent of the "Jiang Kang" Third Route Column, came to Gaojia Village to discuss contact with his teacher Qian Xiangxian and famous doctor Qian Jinxian, and sold three old houses to the two local geniuses who hated the Japanese army. The bamboo forest here is deep and the environment is secluded, making it an ideal anti-Japanese base camp. On May 1, Chen Yi, commander of the First Detachment of the New Fourth Army, ordered Ye Fei, the commander of the Sixth Regiment of the New Fourth Army, and Wu Kun, deputy commander, to lead more than 700 people from the Sixth Regiment of the New Fourth Army to set out eastward from the Maoshan area. The Volunteer Army arrived in the Daixiqiao and Luoyang areas of Wujin County. Qian Xiangxian and Qian Jinxian led their families to clean the houses, leave the living room, arrange the venue to welcome the soldiers of the New Fourth Army. Qian Xiangxian’s family established the “ Jiang Kang ” general command center, and Qian Jinxian’s family established the “Jiang Kang” political department. A three-day meeting was held at Qian Jinxian's home and the Jiangnan Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army General Headquarters was officially established. At the same time, in order to strengthen the Party’s leadership over the military, the Communist Party of China East Road Work Committee was established, with Ye Fei as secretary and Lin Feng and He Kexi as deputy secretary. The "Jiang Anti-Japanese" General Command is under the jurisdiction of two or three routes. The Qian family boils water, makes beds and feeds horses to the New Fourth Army soldiers every day. The famous Chinese medicine doctor Mr. Qian Jinxian carefully treated the injured and sick soldiers, and the soldiers called him the "miraculous doctor". The people in Gaojia Village also warmly welcomed the New Fourth Army, and every household made beds and quilts to arrange accommodation for their soldiers. The villagers helped the soldiers wash and cook, and kept watch for the New Fourth Army, nervous and orderly, and joyful. The "Jiang Anti-Japanese" commanders and fighters were also busy carrying water, sweeping the floor and doing farm work for the people. They do not take every needle and thread from the masses, and they can calculate every account clearly with the people. Gaojia Village is filled with a harmonious atmosphere of people supporting the army and loving the people. "You have to eat cabbage and be a soldier. You have to be a Jiang army. You always win battles and never bully the people. You all love the Jiang army..." This is a song that was widely circulated in Jiangnan 80 years ago. After the meeting, more than a thousand people set out from Daixi and Luoyang, kicking off the New Fourth Army's eastward advance to fight against Japan. Jiang Kang" fought eastward, attacked the Japanese and puppets, broke through the restrictions of the Kuomintang, completed the task of raising "people, guns, and funds", and opened up the anti-Japanese base of the South Jiangsu East Road. In just over five months, Jiang Kang" grew from more than 1,000 people to the eastward to more than 5,000 people, and the weapons and equipment were greatly improved.
"Jiang Kang" command reported frequent news of the eastward advance. On May 5, 1939, the General Command of the "Jiang Kang" led more than a thousand people from the second and third routes to the second and third routes to the Daixi and Luoyang areas, and from the near Henglin, the Beijing-Shanghai Railway to enter Wuxi Meicun, Suzhou , Changshu and other places. The specific task is: break through the restrictions of the Kuomintang and develop troops. Armed yourself, expand the anti-Japanese forces, and establish a new anti-Japanese base, becoming one of the main forces led by the Jiangnan Command of the New Fourth Army. Bloody battles in Huangtutang, night attacks on Hushuguan, fire burning Hongqiao Airport ... This force has made immortal contributions to national independence and national liberation.
In September 1939, according to the actual situation and the needs of the anti-Japanese struggle, the "Jiang Anti-Japanese" retreated westward, leaving behind the spark of revolution in the Yangcheng Lake area, that is, the 36 wounded and sick people who were later well-known, established the Jiangnan Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army East Road Command. The red classic " Shajiabang " was written based on this real story.The Jiang Anti-Japanese Army wrote the most brave and fearless chapter in the history of the Anti-Japanese War.
always wanted to visit the former site of the Jiangnan Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army Command, and accidentally chose to meet with several patriotic colleagues on September 18. I think it may be the guidance of the heroic spirit of the Volunteer Army that set this special meaning day. This time, there were descendants of Qin Guan . His grandfather was an anti-Japanese general and his father was an officer of Huangpu . Also accompanying were retired cadres of the Shanghai Garrison Command, painters and poets who promote positive energy. Along the way, everyone enjoyed the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers, and thanked the martyrs who created the peaceful years for us. It happened that Ms. Zhou, who was a descendant of a martyr, told the revolutionary story that her father experienced. Her father was an international student who went to study in the UK. She joined Communist International in her mentor's introduction. WWIIH , he participated in the Russian fight against fascism. When the War of Resistance Against Japan broke out, he resolutely returned to China to join the fight against the invaders. He was not afraid of the white terror and mobilized his patriotic compatriots to donate money and materials to the country. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Mr. Zhou, who had seven languages, participated in negotiations with Russia and Japan, and preserved the territorial integrity of the Northeast and the Lushun Port. Because he is a rare talent in the country, he was unfortunately plotted against by evil people. From then on, there is no news, which makes people sigh. Ms. Zhou's mother is also an underground party. During the War of Resistance Against Japan, at Ningbo Jisaiyan Airport (now Ningbo Zhuangqiao Airport ), her mother witnessed the underground party instructor Song being captured by the Japanese army. The inhumane Japanese army released a ferocious wolf dog to bite the instructor to death, forcing the people to watch. Her mother also experienced the cruel scenes personally, which strengthened the courage to eliminate the invaders. He often transports medicines, food, clothing, etc. to the New Fourth Army as a wealthy daughter. The heroes’ stories infected everyone and gave us a vivid lesson in patriotism. I hope that all Chinese people can cherish today's happiness, which was exchanged for countless martyrs with their lives.
Not long after we were traveling, we finally saw an old building with blue brick and wood structure, as if a gentle old man was greeting us. He felt very intimate. On the right side of the cottage were a large and elegant bamboo forest, and the heroic postures of the volunteers were still seen. Entering the old house with mottled walls, the patio is covered with log door frames, and there is a spring atmosphere. Climbing up to the roof platform, tall trees appear on the tile roof to embellish the surroundings of the house. The ancient scenery is suitable for the deep and distant artistic conception of ink painting. The door was engraved with a stone tablet with the red letters on the former site of the commander-in-chief of the Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army in Jiangnan, which contrasted with the blue sky and white clouds, and everyone saluted with standard salutes and greeted the hero who once exchanged his youthful blood and life for peace. Changzhou The famous writer Xie Boyi brought "Manjianghong" to his lyrics for the surrender of Nanjing. The famous calligrapher and painter Sun Huanxiang wrote a masterpiece of calligraphy in regular script. Qin Ling, vice president of the Qin branch of Wuxi Ancestral Hall Research Association, created a couplet, written by Gu Baisheng of Changzhou, and written by Changzhou calligrapher Wang Jianguo carefully wrote a calligraphy painting praising heroes. Three calligraphy works were dedicated to the Volunteer Army Memorial Hall that is about to open, expressing everyone's admiration for the Volunteer Army. Looking at the rejuvenated China, we comfort the martyrs in our hearts that you can rest in peace. Thank you and the people of the whole country for jointly defending the majestic Greater China.
In the afternoon, everyone came to Taikang Family Farm at the hometown of fellow villager Mr. Bian. He is an agricultural expert and the grapes he cultivated were on CCTV. I tasted the ecologically grown ruby pickles and sunny rose grapes , and ate the freshness and sweetness of urban fruits. We visited dozens of acres of grapes in his house without ending our rest. The green corridor built was full of bunches of full red . In the sun, we were like beautiful gems shining. Everyone sang and danced in the orchard, sang sweet grape songs, and left beautiful figures.
In the garden, I chatted with Teacher Bian. He recalled that his family was a landlord with hundreds of acres of land, but his family passed on their family through poetry and books and was kind and generous. During the War of Resistance Against Japan, his father heard that the New Fourth Army in Maoshan was short of food, so he resolutely sent two major ships of food. The Japanese army occupied Shanghai. His nephew led students to take to the streets to protest the atrocities of the invading army and was finally assassinated by the Japanese army.We have 16 secret anti-Japanese organizations in Changzhou, and many of our hometown people are the backbone of the anti-Japanese war. Our hometown people are the heroic people. Many touching stories have emerged in the anti-fascist war, waiting for us to continue to discover them in the future. We hope that future generations will carry forward their indomitable spirit.
Changzhou City leaders and Luoyang Town leaders at all levels continue to deeply explore red resources and tell live red stories well. Further explore the historical information related to "Jiang Kang", enrich the content of the "Jiang Kang" red story, and refine the characteristic red culture. Promote the historical significance of the "Jiang Anti-Japanese" General Command through all aspects and multiple channels to increase the awareness of the "Jiang Anti-Japanese" revolutionary story. Let the red spirit be passed down from generation to generation.
The dark forces in today's peaceful society have not completely disappeared. The emergence of poisonous textbooks has polluted the thoughts of many students. Some people harmed the people in public, and the enemy's minions had grown, some of them had torn off their disguises, and some of the descendants of the former revolutionaries had deteriorated, smearing the Communists. Some upright soldiers and police have come forward to expose the darkness. They are not afraid of evil and defend the truth with their blood and lives like heroes back then. Looking back at the frequent global wars and the anti-fascist struggle has a long way to go. I hope that the people of the whole world will unite to uphold justice and maintain peace, and the blood of the revolutionaries will not be shed in vain. Each of us has the right to defend a better life. May China always be strong and there will be no war in the world. Looking back on history is to move towards the future better. I also wish the people of my hometown will always be peaceful and happy.
Note: Daixi in our hometown has been incorporated into Luoyang Town. This article borrows the red story recorded by people from my hometown.
