In 2015, an ordinary old farmer in Hubei took out an IOU from more than 80 years ago, alarming the local civil affairs department, which was an IOU that the Red Army had borrowed 400 oceans, and after many studies and reviews, it proved the authenticity of this IOU, so how much does such a 400 ocean IOU from more than 80 years ago need to be repaid now? After research and discussion, relevant experts said that these 400 pieces of ocean were equivalent to 40,000 yuan today according to the price at that time, blowing away the dust of history, and what we saw should be the story of the moving military and civilians working together.
In 1927 in Henan, Hubei and other places, successively established the Red Army troops, they are collectively known as the Red First Army, the beginning of the establishment of the troops, very difficult, lack of equipment, eating is also a problem, the superior leaders after consideration, decided to ask the local people for help, the people have a good impression of the Red Army, they have generous donations, at that time the Red Army also had discipline, can not take a needle and a line from the masses, so as long as you borrow money from a family, the Red Army will leave a corresponding IOU.
In 1930, the Seventh Brigade of the First Division of the Red Army Xiaogan County Special Agent Battalion wanted to participate in the Battle of Yangpingkou, so the necessity of fighting, the troops needed to expand recruitment, this time, the leaders also had a lot of worries, for this they found the local Yang Changyin old man, the Yang family in the local business, a little industry, after the Red Army came to visit, the Yang family Yang Changyin expressed great support, he immediately took out more than 300 silver dollars, not only that, he also went to relatives' homes to collect money, and finally made up enough 400 silver dollars, handed over to the Red Army, Tu Xing, the captain of the first detachment of the special service battalion at the time, personally left an IOU for the elderly Yang Changyin, which was the one taken out by the old farmer in 2015.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, local governments issued notices to each other, hoping that they could take back the IOUs from the hands of the people and exchange them for corresponding money or materials, but because of the long time, or some other reasons, the state did not finish the IOU left behind, and the 400 silver dollar IOUs of the three generations of the Yang family have been stored at home, and they did not choose to take it out, until 2015, the elderly Yang Mingrong took out the IOU, and also let people understand the touching story of 80 years ago.
Across time, we will all grow old, and Yang Changyin as a party has also passed away, but this IOU remains, the meaning it represents has far exceeded the 400 silver dollar itself, in that era, we see more of the choice of the people, the Red Army is the only army that can save the people, the military and the people, which is also the most true portrayal of that era.
Today, we can enjoy a peaceful and peaceful living environment, and we must not forget that there were so many people who fought bloodily for the establishment of a new China, and the place we can touch now with our feet extended, at that time, it was their unreachable poetry and distant places, paying tribute to them!
