In the impression of many people, the landlords are those greedy and fierce bullies, who only exploit the common people, have no conscience at all, and are class enemies that must be overthrown. However, there are always exceptions, in the history of our country, there was such a landlord, during the War of Resistance Against Japan, he called on more than 200 people in the village to resist japan together, 6 sons and 5 died in battle, and at the age of 66, they were betrayed by traitors and died.
The landlord's name was Dai Hongchang, and his ancestors had been farming in Shandong and were later forced to migrate to Dunhua. The Dai family, who had left their hometown, soon gained a foothold in the local area, reclaiming the land with their own hands and redeveloping it, and over time, the Dai family eventually became a famous local noble family. Their family business was very smooth, their assets were relatively rich, and at the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan, they were fully capable of taking their families to escape and go to a relatively safe place.
However, Dai Hongchang did not make this choice, he bravely shouldered the responsibility of the sons and daughters of China, and actively resisted Japan with his family. He took out a large amount of assets to buy guns and ammunition, provided a lot of help to the local anti-war troops, and in the process of continuous resistance, Dai Hongchang killed the enemy many times and won the praise of many people.
Unfortunately, he later fell into the hands of the enemy because of the traitor's betrayal. The enemy knew that Dai Hongchang was an active member of the War of Resistance and tried to find out some information from his mouth, but he always adhered to his anti-war stance and did not betray the motherland no matter how severely the enemy tortured him. In the end, he died tragically in prison, which was heartbreaking. Dai Hongchang's son did not give up on himself after learning the bad news of his father's death, continued to lead his father and fellow villagers to actively resist japan, and eventually died tragically on the battlefield, some people think that the Dai family is like the Yang family general, using the lives of the whole family to fight against the enemy, showing the tenacious and indomitable courage of the sons and daughters of China.
Nowadays, the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression has ended for many years, but the revolutionary spirit of Dai Hongchang and others has been passed down, and until now when they mention their family, some elderly people will still show respect. We should remember the history of the past, cherish the hard-won peaceful life now, and use our best efforts to develop and make the whole country stronger, only in this way can we fundamentally stay away from war and no longer have to be invaded by the enemy as before.
