The sound of the wind whimpered, telling the past. The cemetery bows its head and thanks to the heroes. Liu Laozhuang, the New Fourth Army, even the land where 82 martyrs died for their country, every grass and tree contains epics and legends.

Liulaozhuang Village takes the national pilot work of promoting the revitalization of red village organizations and building beautiful villages as an opportunity, closely focuses on inheriting the red gene and carrying forward the revolutionary tradition, give full play to the leading role of party building, insist on promoting the whole village and improving comprehensively, and build Liulaozhuang Village into a red education check-in place and a demonstration point for rural revitalization.

On September 28, 2022, Yugou Town, Huaiyin District, Huai'an City organized party members to visit the Liulaozhuanglian Memorial Park of the New Fourth Army, listen to the stories of martyrs, review the oath of joining the party, and inherit the red genes. Liu Xulian Yang Biao photographed

A war history, heroes are loyal and brave, and they are passed down for a hundred generations. "I have been away from home for more than a year... Home Inn, I can't wait to receive it." This is a family letter from the War of Resistance Against Japan. The sender was Li Yunpeng, the political instructor of the 4th Company, the 23-year-old political instructor of the 4th Company, the 29th Regiment of the 7th Brigade of the 3rd Division of the New Fourth Army. He died in Liulaozhuang Village, Liulaozhuang Town, Huaiyin District, Huai'an City, Jiangsu Province. Today, this letter has become a precious collection of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, silently telling the heroic past of the 82 martyrs of Liu Laozhuang who resisted the Japanese invaders and died heroically.

Li Yunpeng's sister Li Aiyun told reporters that in the spring of 1943, the Japanese invaders attempted to encircle our party and government leadership organs on the north bank of Liutang River. In order to cover the transfer of troops and the masses, the 82-man 4th Company fought fiercely with more than 1,000 well-equipped Japanese and puppet troops in Liulaozhuang. As the elegiac couplet of the main entrance of the Liu Laozhuang Martyrs Cemetery "From northern Shaanxi to the enemy's backbone of northern Jiangsu, the Eighth Route Army, from dawn to dusk, the whole company fought hard to Liuzhuang for 12 hours, and the 82 warriors fought to the last moment of their lives, blocking the Japanese and puppet troops for 12 hours.

82 green pine trees are as tall as a cover, and the spirit of the martyrs has been remembered for generations. Let time pass, you cannot take away the heroic spirit of the world. After this battle, the 4th Company was rebuilt and was named Liulaozhuang Company. An immortal number was born from then on and has been passed down for 80 years. General Secretary Xi Jinping highly praised: The many heroic groups such as the New Fourth Army Liu Laozhuang Company are outstanding representatives of the Chinese people who are not afraid of violence and sacrifice themselves for their country.

preached the heroic deeds of the 82 martyrs of Liu Laozhuang for decades, and Li Aiyun's passion remains undiminished. A week before National Day, she went to three units, namely Xiangyu North Road Experimental Primary School, Huaiyin Primary School, and Liulaozhuang Eighty-Two Martyrs Cemetery, to provide patriotic education to the students. "I can't speak anymore. My descendants will continue to say that it is everyone's responsibility to keep in mind history and serve the country."

In March last year, after Liulaozhuang Village was listed as a pilot project for the construction of a red beautiful village by the Organization Department of the Central Committee, Liulaozhuang Town seized the opportunity and took the construction of the Liulaozhuang Village position as the "point", invested more than 300,000 yuan to transform and upgrade the 2,000 square meters of village party and mass service center. Taking Dinghuzhuang, Liulaozhuang Village as the "line", the pilot project of red beautiful villages is combined with the construction of provincial characteristic pastoral villages, and the pastoral complex project with a total investment of about 30 million yuan is promoted. Taking the town area as the "surface", 60 million yuan was invested to renovate and upgrade three main streets with a total length of 2 kilometers in the town area around pole line relocation, building improvement, traffic optimization, and facility improvement. "Thanks to the opportunity of pilot construction. Now, from village to town, the appearance has been completely renewed." said Lin Qi, Party Secretary of Liulaozhuang Town.

The original intention of the past has been passed down to this day. Zhu Lin , Secretary of the Party Branch and Chairman of the Village Committee of Liulaozhuang Village, said this. At the Party and Mass Council in July 2021, villagers Su Bingqi and Hong Cuiping proposed that the road in front of the village kindergarten and clinic was in poor condition and it would be muddy when it rained. Zhu Lin immediately convened a meeting of the Party General Branch to study, and all party members unanimously passed the resolution of voluntary donation to build roads. In two days, the village "two committees" received a donation of 48,500 yuan. The road was repaired a month later, and the village named it "Weimin Road".

Red spirit flows in the blood of the locals. For 80 years, Huaiyin District insists on sending outstanding young people to the army every year to Liu Laozhuang Company. The Party members of Liulaozhuang Village have insisted on claiming 5 volunteer workers every year for many years, and are responsible for planting 1 landscape tree, serving 1 grid, and contacting 1 relatively in need. Li Yousheng, a party member of Liulaozhuang Village, has also compiled more than 20,000 historical pictures of the 82 martyrs, and has gone out to publicize regularly for 40 years to promote the spirit of the martyrs.

A fruit tree, in front of the cemetery, thousands of trees spring

Liulaozhuang Eighty-Two Martyrs Cemetery, there are 3 huge pecan fruit trees. The October sunshine makes its green fruit gradually full.

1960, a foreign unit donated a batch of trees to Liu Laozhuang. A few years later, several trees actually produced edible fruits. At that time, there was a shortage of supplies, and villagers often went to the cemetery to pick up fruits to satisfy their hunger, believing that this was a "blessing tree" brought to the people of the old district by the martyrs. Later, after being identified by Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences, it was discovered that the "Fu Shu" is pecan fruit .

Since the climate and soil conditions of Liulaozhuang are suitable for planting pecans, Liulaozhuang Village has identified it as the leading industry. Now, a total of 1,100 acres of pecan trees are planted in the village, of which 260 acres are planted by villagers, and the rest are planted by village collectives or large households. Zhu Haibing, the owner of Xiangzhuang Farm, said that pecan fruits have fruits in 5 years and have a bumper yield in 7 years, which is too large for individual farmers to make a profit. "My plantation provides more than 200 temporary jobs."

Now, all 7,050 acres of land in the village have been transferred to the village collective, and the village collective is then contracted to the growers. At present, in addition to 3,000 mu of rice, Liulaozhuang has developed 4 "thousand acres", namely 1,000 mu of forestry and fruit, 1,000 mu of photovoltaic power generation, 1,000 mu of fruit and vegetable picking, and 1,000 mu of pecan fruit. Zhu Lin said that the countryside is turning into a farm.

The villagers who were loosened from the land have served a new job. In addition to working outside, the village also introduced a clothing factory and an edible fungus processing factory, with 300 villagers working here, with monthly salary ranging from 1,500 to 4,500 yuan.

Last year, the collective economic operating income of Liulaozhuang Village reached 1.07 million yuan, and this year it is expected to exceed 1.5 million yuan. Most of the village collectives still have a rent of 730,000 yuan for 700 acres of land contracted for the outside world, and the growth point is that the village collective operation of pecan fruit has an income of 300,000 yuan.

As the village collectively becomes stronger, more practical things can be done for the people in the village. Now, the village collective pays for the kindergarten, the villagers' tap water fees, and the villagers' medical insurance payment (50 yuan per person). At the village party and mass service center, a September list of activities for the "Stone Action" serving the masses was posted, including haircuts, watching red movies, calligraphy competitions, etc., and even the egg-puff competition was included.

A decision was made, villagers collectively increase their income

In 2011, most farmers in Liulaozhuang Village moved into the Red Home Community, and only Dinghuzhuang was left unresolved. In 2021, after the pilot project of red beautiful villages was launched, the town party committee and the village party general branch decided to implement the Dinghuzhuang living environment improvement project on the basis of respecting public opinion, investing 30 million yuan to create a pastoral complex that retains nostalgia memories.

"I thought this decision was to compromise and make money, but I realized that all parties will win and rejuvenate. This incident inspired us that the construction of a beautiful red village must be carried with the masses and earned with the masses." A relevant person in charge of the Organization Department of the Huaiyin District Committee said with emotion that this project has gained "three unexpected things".

The first is that I couldn’t imagine that project construction is so fast. The project covers a total area of ​​3,000 mu, and the project construction was completed in just 3 and a half months. Among them, 67-year-old Zhu Lin took the lead in living and working on the front line, and there were also the cooperation and participation of the village "two committees" cadres. This is all due to the remarkable results of organizational revitalization, and all party members and cadres are quick, vigorous and efficient.

The second is that I didn’t expect that the masses would support so much. In 2016, the towns and villages tried to upgrade and transform Dinghuzhuang, but there were many contradictions at that time and the masses did not understand it, so they temporarily put it aside and did not enforce it. Since last year, the people have seen the changes brought to Liulaozhuang Village by the pilot construction of red beautiful villages, and have not only actively supported it but also strongly supported it. The old tree at the entrance of Dinghuzhuang was moved out of his yard and donated to the village by villager Liu Zhongbing. The tree has been in its age for more than 80 years. When transplanting, Liu Zhongbing said, "This tree is more meaningful than putting it in my home."

The third thing is that I didn't expect that the implementation effect was so good, and the villagers became rich and the collective. First of all, the shared vegetable garden in the project has been put into use, with 150 portions of land in 15 mu. Each portion of land is 800 yuan, and the village planted on behalf of 1,000 yuan.Secondly, last year, relying on the transformation of her new look, the village held a light and shadow carnival folk lantern exhibition in Dinghuzhuang, attracting 150,000 people around her to visit, and the village's collective economy increased by 160,000 yuan. At the same time, it also led more than a dozen farmers to sell grilled sausages, bottled water, etc. to tourists. The highest farmers earned 50,000 yuan a month.

"Under construction, we have introduced multiple market entities to cooperate in homestays, lantern exhibitions, etc., and the village collective has received 30% of the profits." Zhu Lin said that if you want to talk about the trouble, that is, how the village collective shares more profits in the secondary industry projects.

Last year, the village collectively led the 130 acres of pecan fruit, which was just a small step to solve the problem, and a bigger move was at the back. On September 30, Yu Feng, the first secretary of the village, went to , Huaian City, to obtain the license of Liu Laozhuang Tengfei Agricultural Development Company, which is the main body of the village collectively led the enterprise. The first thing the enterprise did was to share 5 million yuan of project funds invested by the village collective in the breeding industry in the village, with a share of 10,000 yuan per share, and allow village cadres and villagers to invest. He said that the correct direction for village cadres to lead the management, village collective equity investment, and market-oriented management are the village collective development of the planting and breeding industry. "After establishing a company, you should act in accordance with the board of directors' charter, which will restrict the business decision-making behavior of the main person in charge of the village." Zhu Lin said.
