1 In early 1939, 28 martyrs of the Fourth Army of the National Revolutionary Army stationed in Zhongtiao Mountain, Pinglu, Shanxi died. After the comrades in the battalion buried him, they erected a "rear death monument". After that, just four months later, most of the officers and soldiers of the battalion died in their country. The martyrs go first, and the one who erects the monument dies later - this is the origin of the "Monument of Death" on Zhongtiao Mountain.
Zhang Chongbo | Text and pictures
stare at every drop of the blood of the martyrs and remember the name of each martyr.
The history forged with life requires the writing and hymn of generations.
Recently, Yu Ji columnist Zhang Chongbo visited Zhongtiao Mountain in Pinglu County, Shanxi Province and found a precious "death monument". The inscription records the deeds of 28 martyrs in the third battalion of the 1059th Regiment of the 177th Division of the 96th Army of the National Revolutionary Army on January 23, 1939:
"The Japanese pirates in Ruicheng County jointly joined forces with more than 2,000 infantry and cavalry artillery, and invaded us through wind and drowning the three routes. The officers and soldiers of our battalions fought bravely, held their positions, resisted bravely, fought fiercely all day, annihilated hundreds of enemies, and achieved brilliant results, causing the enemy to finally escape timidly. In this battle, 28 brave soldiers, all of whom died heroically for the country and nation with a fearless spirit."
The inscription was shallowly engraved. Soon after the battle ended, the battalion was burying the bodies of comrades in a hurry. In the following four months, most of the officers and soldiers of the battalion died in the Shakou Beach of the Yellow River, for the "June 6 Battle". The martyr went first, and the erected the monument died later - this is the origin of the "Monument to Death".
One inch of mountains and rivers and one inch of blood. Zhongtiao Mountain is located in the southwest of Shanxi and the north bank of the Yellow River. It is a natural barrier for Henan and Shaanxi provinces. 260,000 soldiers of the National Army were stationed until May 1941, and the famous Zhongtiao Mountain Battle broke out (the Japanese side called the "Central Plains Battle"). It was a war of resolute resistance and tragic sacrifices after the War of Resistance entered the stalemate stage of the War of Resistance. "42,000 corpses were abandoned, and many generals of the national army, including General Tang Huaiyuan, Commander of the Third Army, and Major General of the 12th Division, Cun Xingqi, died heroically in the country."
28 martyrs were lucky because their names were engraved on this stone tablet; and the deceased who erected the monument was also lucky because this monument was also erected for them!
The martyr on the stone tablet
took the Google map downloaded the night before, crossed the Sanmenxia Yellow River Bridge early in the morning and entered Pinglu County, southern Shanxi. First, provincial road, then county road, then village road, and finally came to Xizheng Village, Hongchi Township to search for the story on the "Shou Dead Monument".
"The Dead Monument" is erected on a flat open space at the beginning of Xizheng Village. It is backed by a loess beam. To the east is a large ditch. The tweeter of the village opposite the ditch is playing Pu Opera, with a high-pitched and melodious tone floating on the vast loess plateau.
The monument is engraved with the names, ages, official ranks and origins of each of the 28 martyrs. There is a big character on each side of the forehead of the four prisms, which is connected to "sacrifice for the country"
Under the warm autumn sun, the "Monument to Death" appears lonely and remote. The 28 martyrs 76 years ago were buried here. Their depressed souls were like the ever-changing deep loess under their feet, like the Zhongtiao Mountain stretching hundreds of miles behind them, like the surging Yellow River water under the loess plateau in front of you.
"The Dead Monument" is a square stone pillar with a height of 1.8 meters. A large character is engraved on each side of the top of the monument. It needs to be identified with effort. It is connected to "sacrifice for the country." After more than 70 years of baptism of wind and rain, the inscription has been blurred. Only by pouring mineral water can you see it. The front of the
monument is engraved with the "Memorial to the Deadly Soldiers of the Third Battalion of the 530th Brigade of the 177th Division of the 96th Army of the National Revolutionary Army, erected by the battalion commander Zhang Yuting and all the officers and soldiers of the battalion. The auspicious day of January 28, Greater Republic of China." The front of the
front of the stele of the back of the stele of
monument It is: "In the spring of the 28th year of the Republic of China, the camp was ordered to guard Moao, Tandao, Zhujiayao and other places in the south of Zhongtiao Mountain. On January 23, the Japanese pirates in Ruicheng County joined forces with more than 2,000 infantry and cavalry artillery, and invaded us three routes through the wind. The officers and soldiers of our battalions fought bravely, held their positions, resisted bravely, fought fiercely all day, annihilated hundreds of enemies, and achieved brilliant results, which made the enemy finally escape timidly. In this battle, 28 heroic soldiers, all of whom were brave and sacrificed heroically for the country and nation with a fearless spirit. His great spirit is enough to inspire the people of the country and gloriously, and never die.In addition to preparing coffin and burying, colleagues listed their names and thoughts on stones to show their family members. "
The third battalion recorded on the "Hou Death Stele" in Xizheng Village was found in "The Evolution of the Original 17th Route Army Sequence". The number of this battalion is the third battalion of the 1059th Regiment of the 17th Brigade of the 17th Division of the 96th Army of the Fourth Army. The commander of the army was Sun Weiru, the commander of the army Li Xingzhong, the commander of the division Chen Shuoru, the commander of the brigade Ren Yunzhang, the commander of the regiment Sun Jiesheng, and the commander of the battalion Zhang Yuting.
After the July 7 Incident in 1937, Yang Hucheng was lifted by Chiang Kai-shek in the name of going abroad for investigation. The 17th Route Army he belonged to was led by Sun Weiru, and was under the jurisdiction of the 38th Army, the 96th Army, the 46th Independent Brigade, the 47th Independent Brigade and other units. After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Japanese army gathered the main force to capture Fenglingdu, Ruicheng, Shanxi, and wanted to Crossing the Yellow River to invade Guanzhong, then peeking at Sichuan, and then plotting for Chongqing. Under this emergency situation, Sun Weiru volunteered to lead the Shaanxi army to cross the Yellow River eastward in early 1938, defending the Zhongtiao Mountain from Ruicheng to Pinglu, Shanxi to block the enemy.
3hundred miles of Zhongtiao Mountain, a natural barrier, protecting the Yellow River, guarding the Central Plains, and protecting Shaanxi. From west to east, there were Shaanxi Army, Sichuan Army, Yunnan Army, and Henan Army respectively, to prevent the Japanese army from advancing west and southward.
30,000 Shaanxi Army soldiers fought with the determination to die. They held Zhongtiao Mountain for three years and never allowed the Japanese army to enter Shaanxi. According to the information, the Seventeenth Route Army (later adapted into 3 1st Army, Fourth Army), after many important battles such as Yongji, Liuliu, and April 17, they repelled 11 major attacks by the Japanese army. At the same time, the Shaanxi army also paid a huge price, with 21,000 soldiers killed in battle. The most difficult thing was that in the 1939 "June 6" Battle, the Shaanxi army was divided and surrounded by the Japanese army on the bank of the Yellow River, and could not break through. Finally, there was a tragic story of "Eight Hundred Cold Babies" jumping over the Yellow River.
on both sides of the back death monument, the ranks, names, ages and hometowns of 28 martyrs were engraved. Among the 28 martyrs, 24 were from Shaanxi, and the remaining 4 were Hebei, Shandong, Gansu and Jincheng, Shanxi.

8 martyrs died
Beside the village of Xizheng Village, I met the 66-year-old Zhang Chaoan to explain his purpose. He led us directly to a dilapidated and empty courtyard at the beginning of the village. Here is a 93-year-old Liu Shu.
Old Man Liu Shu told the battle 76 years ago -
"On the fourth day of the twelfth lunar month of the 27th lunar month of the Republic of China, the 23rd lunar month of the 28th lunar month of the 28th lunar month, the 3rd lunar month of the 1059th Regiment stationed in my village received an order, and a Japanese army suddenly fell from Zhongtiao Mountain. Fenggeda is the 20-li Ridge, twenty miles away from Jiezhou City, and twenty miles away from Shannan Monan Street. "
Xizheng Village 91-year-old Liu Shu talked about the heroic scene he saw that day
" The day before, the battalion commander Zhang Yuting hung a color and was injured by a Japanese plane's artillery shell. He was recovering from injury. Deputy battalion commander Fan Shenggui led the war. My village has a few tricks to have children, and I also asked to join in the war. I was fifteen or sixteen years old at that time, and I was brave enough, so I followed him to the temple gate outside the village to watch the fun. "
"After a short while, a Japanese plane flew over and dropped bombs, and then guns and cannons came. The baby was low and the shells flew over his head. Deputy Battalion Commander Fan was tall, and the shell cut off his head in a flash. Then another shell came over, breaking the deputy battalion commander's left leg. That day, there was a family in my village who married their daughter. When the Japanese fire shells were dropped, everyone was scared away. The bride and groom were in a panic and worshipped the world at the Guandi Temple on the roadside, and also ran away. "
Chai Zuodong is from Xizheng Village. When Zhang Yuting brought the Third Battalion to the village in 1939, he was 16 years old.
At that time, Chai Zuodong's family lived in a class. The squad leader was surnamed Li, and he was in his 20s. Chai Zuodong quickly became friends with Chai Zuodong, and the two of them talked about everything. Chai Zuodong talked about the customs and culture of Shaanxi and the grain crops in Shaanxi. He said that he was a student before and came to Shanxi to fight against the Japanese devils. Chai Zuodong often told Chai Zuodong about the principle of fighting against Japan and saving the country. Once, he asked him: "Wanting Japan requires people from all over the country to fight together. Do you fight against Japan? "Chai Zuodong said, "I'll shoot, I'll shoot if you send me a gun." "Squad leader Li smiled and said, "I know your eldest mother can't bear to leave you.""
This squad of soldiers lived at Chai Zuodong's house, and they used a stove and iron pot with his house. Each of them had an enamel jar. When they were eating, they squatted on the ground and carried the enamel jar. They only ate two meals a day, once every morning and once every 4:00 pm. After they finished cooking, Chai Zuodong's family started to make it.
Xizheng Village 9
Old man Chai Zuodong from the brigade militia company commander and village party secretary. A squad of soldiers lived in his yard, and in the end they all sacrificed their lives. When the soldiers cooked, they never used Chai's firewood. The firewood they used for cooking was picked up by themselves outside the village. Sometimes, the troops use money to buy from the village after they have no noodles. It is very fair and never give less money.
People in Xizheng Village can remember this incident. One time, a deputy company and an old man in the village had an verbal battle, and pushed each other. When the battalion commander Zhang Yuting heard about this, he punished the deputy company to stand guard at the entrance of the village and criticized him severely. When he talked about the anger, he picked up a thin wooden strip and beat the deputy company several times. After the deputy company finished his post, Battalion Commander Zhang asked him to go to the old man's house and apologize. The old man was very moved and repeatedly said that there were few such troops.
The soldiers of the Anti-Japanese War had a deep relationship with the local villagers, "I lived in the commander of the machine gun company, the surname is Wang, and I was in my thirties. The Shaanxi Army and the people are the same, and they have a good relationship. If they don’t join the soldiers and don’t enter the people’s houses, they will also help harvest crops. "The 93-year-old Liu Shu said. Chai Zuodong also remembered it very clearly on the day of the battle of
. On that day, the group of soldiers stationed at home were having dinner, and the village blew a gathering number. Some had just picked up their bowls, and some had eaten half of them. They put down their bowls and ran out with guns on their backs. Later, the group of soldiers never came back. After the battle of
, 28 people were sacrificed by the third battalion. The soldiers tied their upper bodies with ropes, then tied their ankles with ropes, and carried them outside the Guandi Temple at the entrance of the village. . Adjutant Ma told battalion commander Zhang Yuting that people in the northern countryside were superstitious and did not allow those who died outside to enter the village, saying that this would bring bad luck to the village. Battalion Commander Zhang placed 28 sacrificed soldiers outside the village.
There were many people visiting the sacrificed soldiers in the village. Chai Zuodong's father also came. All the soldiers who lived in his family were sacrificed. This group was arranged at the forefront of the position at that time. When Chai Zuodong's father saw these soldiers, tears came down. He said, "The season was fine just now, but why did it suddenly become like this! "
" The battle ended soon. In the afternoon, two soldiers carried the deputy battalion commander's body, one soldier hugged the deputy battalion commander's head, and gave birth to a baby and came back with one of the legs of the deputy battalion commander. It was very scary. "The 93-year-old old man Liu Shu said.
The origin of the dead monument after
Because of the emergency of the war, the 28 soldiers were temporarily buried in the soil pit outside the Guandi Temple. They were buried very shallowly. Battalion Commander Zhang wrote down their names and the order of burial in the small notebook he carried with him. The purpose was to be able to identify them clearly when the bodies were transported and buried again.
"Stop for a few days, the battalion commander thought it was too close to the people in the village, so he moved to the ditch behind the village, and digged a series of tombs buried by the kilns. Regardless of the thickness, each of them had a coffin, and placed a blue brick in the coffin, engraved with a bayonet with his name, origin, age, and military rank. There is a wooden sign on each grave, with the characters brushed with foreign paint, which are the same as those engraved on the blue bricks in the coffin. What is the soldier, what is his surname, what is his name, and where is his person? "
Xizheng villagers introduced me the story of the martyr who died in the monument. The second second at the left was Teacher Zhang Wenguang. His father was very close to Battalion Commander Zhang Yuting back to Xizheng Village. One month later, Zhang Yuting brought the team back to Xizheng Village. He bought some poplar boards and mixed wood boards, and found more than a dozen carpenters from nearby villages to customize 28 coffins, and put the 28 comrades who died in the coffin.
Zhang Yuting also found a stonemason named Zhang and asked Zhang Shimason to carve a monument for these comrades.
I asked Old Man Liu Shu: Why is it called "The Monument of Death"?
He said, "The people of Xizheng have been passed down by word of mouth for decades. The name of the monument was started by battalion commander Zhang Yuting at that time, which means that the living people buried the sacrificed people, and in the future they will also go to the death to fight against the war."
Zhang Wenguang, a 78-year-old retired teacher in Xizheng Village, introduced that the cemetery of 28 martyrs was built in the 1970s, and the graves were covered and turned into crop fields. Behind the cemetery is a highland, and there was originally a temple called Baiye Temple. Zhang Yuting's troops were stationed there. There are small kilns at the base of the high dam, which can both prevent air defense and shoot, and guard against the enemies invading Zhujia Kiln, Tandao in the west and Zhongtiao Mountain Fengkong in the north.
Zhang Wenguang said that his father Zhang Chongxiao was the top figure in the village and had a good relationship with battalion commander Zhang Yuting. He often organized migrant workers to carry stretchers and dig trenches. Later, he found carpenters from several nearby villages to make coffins for 28 martyrs, find stonemasons to build monuments, find villagers to carry monuments, and bury people. They were all greeted by his father.
The stonemason was surnamed Zhang, a native of Jiezhou. He lived in his house for more than ten years. The stonemason mainly forged and grinded. He had no experience in carving steles and had a little shallow engraving. The inscription and font were written by an adjutant named Ma of Zhang Yuting. Zhang Wenguang said that Adjutant Ma was a stubborn man and very educated.
The next day, Zhang Yuting sent someone to carry the stone tablet to the tofu shop, invited the whole village to have a meal of tofu, and held a funeral for 28 soldiers. He regarded the 28 soldiers as his children and the whole village as his relatives. The countryside was very poor at that time, and it was a very luxurious and happy thing to be able to eat tofu. However, many people ate tofu that day and tears fell down their faces.
After doing all this, Zhang Yuting took the battalion and left Xizheng Village.
The main peak of Zhongtiao Mountain was windy. From there, the Japanese army went down the mountain and rushed straight to Xizheng Village.
In the "Six Six Battle" four months later, most of Zhang Ying died in the Shakou Beach of the Yellow River.
Strangely, two cypress trees grew automatically on the tombs of these martyrs. Unfortunately, only one tree is preserved now, and the other tree has been cut off in a large group.
The sad things behind the hero
Old man Liu Shu took a deep breath of cigarette and continued to say:
"The people of Shaanxi were originally going to move back, but who knew that the war was in chaos and no one came. After liberation, the large collective production team built a canal, buried these graves, and turned out the stone tablet.
In recent years, due to the unremitting efforts of descendants of the Shaanxi army, the Pinglu County CPPCC, as well as enthusiastic people and volunteers in society, there were 18 martyrs on the "Hou Dead Monument" and got in touch with their families. The unknown "Hou Dead Monument" has gradually become well-known to people. , and people come to visit and worship.
2015 National Day, we drove to Shangluo City, Shaanxi Province to visit the hometown and relatives of the six martyrs. Maybe God is favored by God. Although the search is difficult, it has not failed. We met Hao Xingsi's nephew Hao Zhaoqi, Ren Bingyang's third daughter-in-law Gui Airong, and Wang Xiangli, the nephew of the Wang family martyrs.
Hao Xingsi's nephew Hao Zhaoqi tells with tears that the third uncle was arrested shortly after his marriage and went to the front line to fight against Japan.
In Haocun, Liangtouyuan Township, Luonan County, we met Hao Xingsi ( Private, 25 years old, is the nephew of Hao Zhaoqi, the five-guarantee and four-element family in Luonan, Shaanxi Province - According to the inscription), a nephew of Hao Zhaoqi, 74 years old. Hao Xingsi is his second university, his father is the eldest, and there are three universities, and he has two sons. He said that in 2009, he went to Xizheng Village to see the second university, Hao Xingsi, "The three of us brothers have gone, and the county civil affairs bureau drove with him, and many descendants of martyrs from various places in Shaanxi have gone there. The paper I uncovered was burned, and I said, Second University, the road is so far, I can't get on the bus, and I may not come again in the future. "The old man choked and cried when he said this.
Hao Zhaoqi said with tears, "The Second University joined the army after half a year of marriage. The second mother was a widow for more than ten years, but in the end she couldn't wait, so she married Beipoling. "The old man continued, "I only know that I was dead on the battlefield of the Second Great Battlefield and there was no notice of death. Some people said they went to Taiwan. It was not until the people from the province came to know that they had served in the army under Yang Hucheng and were defeated and sacrificed in one battle."
I told the old man, "That battle was not defeated. We sacrificed 28, and more than 100 Japanese died, blocking the Japanese soldiers' plan to cross the Yellow River. "
The inscription shows: "Hao Xingsi, Private, twenty-five years old. "But Hao Zhaoqi insisted that he was 27 years old, saying that it was my grandmother's explanation. The old man also told me that Sun Fangxi, an anti-Japanese soldier in the village, has "no news" until now. There is also a veteran in the nearby Liu Village, and there is no whereabouts. "The woman is guarding a woman, and both of them are pitiful. "
In Wangjiazhuang Village, Fushui Town, Shangnan County, she met Gui Airong, the third daughter-in-law of Ren Xingfu (Private First Class, 27 years old, Wangjiazhuang, Shangnan, Shaanxi - According to the inscription), she knew that her father-in-law was in the army for her eldest son Ren Xingfu, "I never thought that she would be gone in 1939."
Mother-in-law Wu Xiuzhen lived until 1972 and died in her 70s. "My mother-in-law was chanting all day long, and she didn't know where to join the army at that time. Later, a young man from Xuejiagou ran back and said that he saw his father-in-law in the team, and he had no shoes to wear, and his feet were frozen to pieces. He was very pitiful. My mother-in-law cried as soon as she lifted it up. My mother-in-law is a widow at the age of 30, and she doesn't know where her father-in-law died when she dies. "
Gui Airong told me that it has been three years since my sister-in-law Wang Xiuying passed away. I was very grateful to my father-in-law for taking over her man in the army during his lifetime. "I heard that all the people in the company were dead. The company commander was still there. I knew their names, so I wrote the name with a brick, put a brick in front of one, and buried a line. "
Ren Bingyang's third daughter-in-law Gui Airong talked about her father-in-law's tragic experience and looked helpless. Gui Airong said that after knowing the place where the old man died, several nephews would rush to Xizheng Village, Shanxi to burn paper every Qingming Festival.
In Zhangtun Village, Xipi Township, Jingyang County, he met Wang Xiangli, the nephew of Wang Jiaqiang (first class private, 19 years old, second-insurance of Fengxianghe Village, Zhashui, Shaanxi - according to the inscription). He said that Wang Jiaqiang was his uncle, and his father was the third child.
"My grandfather was not here in June, and his father was born in the twelfth lunar month. Since my uncle was taken to the army, my 13-year-old second uncle herded cattle for others and exchanged some food for food. My grandmother led my father to beg for food everywhere. My father was only nine years old when my uncle joined the army. I have a mute aunt who hired a son-in-law and greeted her two younger brothers. There has been no news since my uncle left. In 1978, some people said that my uncle got married in Gansu and had two children in front of him, so he asked us to come and see. At that time, the economy was in a tight position and there was no money. My second uncle gave the informant 100 yuan, and my father also gave him 100 yuan, and he also arranged a banquet to greet him. Finally, I found out that it was a liar. I was cheated twice in total. The old man at home asked me to go to Gansu to meet me, but I didn't. I think since my uncle is alive, he will come back no matter how hard he is. Later I learned that on January 23, 1939, my uncle and his friends had just brought the food to their hands. Some of them had eaten a few bites, and some had not eaten yet, and they went to the battlefield. They fought too hard and all 28 people died. "
Wang Xiangli, the nephew of the Wang family martyr, described the misery of grandma's missing her son
Wang Xiangli told me, "I heard from my father that when my grandma died, she kept thinking about sucking her eldest son. My uncle was led by the strong men. At that time, Chiang Kai-shek in the Kuomintang was in charge of the affairs. The Japanese couldn't stand it anymore. They recruited people everywhere in the countryside, and there were more brothers, and there was no news after they were taken away. That night, my uncle didn't dare to live in the house. He fell asleep in the fields and was taken away. "
" When my uncle left, my father was only 9 years old. My grandmother led my father to beg for food for two years. There was nothing to eat at that time. My father said that people cook potatoes and take them out of the pile of ashes. If you don’t blow soot or peel them, you will eat them. Before leaving, they will bring you some potatoes. If you eat it with skin, you won’t take it for you when you leave. "
On the afternoon of October 3, we rushed to Zhangerce Village, Pixi Town, 30 miles east of Sanyuan County, Xianyang City, and met the descendant of the battalion commander Zhang Yuting, his 83-year-old eldest son Zhang Zhixiao and his 53-year-old grandson Zhang Qiangao. The father and son basically explained the situation of Zhang Yuting -
Zhang Yuting first stationed troops in Hanzhong, southern Shaanxi, then went to Zhongtiao Mountain in southern Shanxi, and then went to Gongyi in western Henan to guard river defense, retreated to the Lu family, and finally served as the leader of the 529th Regiment, surrendered to the Uprising in Mao County, Chengdu, and returned to the village to serve as the captain of the production team after the liberation. After the "Cultural Revolution", he served as the vice chairman of the Xianyang Municipal CPPCC after the Cultural Revolution. He died in 1991 at the age of 86.
Battalion Commander Zhang Yuting's eldest son Zhang Zhixiao (83 years old) and fifth grandson Zhang Qiangao (53 years old), telling the ups and downs of his predecessors
Zhang Yuting has a total of seven sons and seven daughters, and is born to three wives. The original wife of her hometown died after giving birth to her eldest son, Zhang Zhixiao. The second wife was married when he was stationed in Hanzhong, and the third wife was married when he was stationed in Gongyi.
"I'm over 20 years younger than my grandfather. At that time, the war was in chaos. Her father insisted that my grandfather take his woman away. My grandfather said he had a wife at home. But it didn't make sense, so he married her. My broken father is only one year older than me. We are all well united." Zhang Qiangao added.
The eldest son Zhang Zhixiao followed his father when he was young. As a family member of the army, his father was stationed there and he went to school there. The old man talked about it one by one, including Xi'an, Hanzhong, Sishui, Gongyi, Luoyang, etc.
Zhang Zhixiao recalled that his father had just returned to the village to farm. "At that time, his life was pitiful. My father made tofu, and I sold tofu. He was very honest, strict in educating his children, his clothes and hats must be neat, and he had to be polite to others. He was old and guests came to his family. When he was sick, he was unwilling to lie there and talk to others."
During the Cultural Revolution, as an "enemy puppet officer", Zhang Yuting was criticized and punished several times and was detained for two years. Sometimes when he was taken out of prison, his whole body was swollen and his hair and face were white. Standing on the stage, hanging a sign with the words "Zhang Yuting, the historical counter-revolutionary" written on it.
1980s, Zhang Yuting, who was in his 70s, went to Zhongtiao Mountain after being released from prison. He sat there for a whole afternoon at the place where he set up a tombstone for his comrades. The tombs buried by comrades back then had been flattened, and the four-sided monument was also tilted into the ditch.
A young man in a village is working. Zhang Yuting said to him, "Help me lift this monument." In the end, he gave the young man 5 yuan.
Tombstone of Zhang Yuting in Zhangerche Village, Sanyuan County, Shaanxi
Zhang Zhixiao recalled that until the old man passed away, he kept talking about these brothers who died on Zhongtiao Mountain.
Zhang Yuting’s tomb is not far from the village. Zhang Qiangao took us to see his grandfather’s grave. He said next year marks the third anniversary of the death of my third grandmother. The whole family wants to join the grave for the two old people and plan to erect a monument for grandpa again. You also need to build a pavilion and plant cypress trees. He said, "At that time, people plan to organize their future people to go to Shanxi to see the death monument."
Qian Gao is very proud of his grandfather. He said, "After the reform and opening up, when my grandfather was the vice chairman of the Xianyang CPPCC, I packed him up during the meeting. I have stayed in a high-end hotel in Xianyang. I graduated from junior high school and had a great degree of education. I was delayed."
It is gratifying that on March 28, 2013, five of the Xu Zhibang, Hao Xingsi, Ren Bingyang, Wu Zongshu and Wang Jiaqiang were approved as revolutionary martyrs by the Shaanxi Provincial People's Government and called "comrades".
