In that bloody and sweaty era of the War of Resistance, countless martyrs and heroes threw their heads and spilled their blood to fight for the country, in order to make a little contribution to the country's crisis, even sacrificed their precious lives, and some people were posthumously honored as martyrs after sacrifice.
Chen Zhongzhu
Chen Zhongzhu was born in a poor family, his father died early, leaving his mother and five brothers to live a difficult life, after he became an adult, his hometown because of the floods and grains, he went to Shanghai to make a living, where he came into contact with advanced revolutionary ideas, and then went to the police academy to work and study, and later also went to the Whampoa Military Academy to study, and his excellent results attracted much attention.
During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Chen Zhongzhu, who came from a military academy, as a major general and a pioneer, has been fighting on the front line, but after the defeat of the Battle of Xuzhou this time, Chen Zhongzhu and his troops were scattered, and after a hard time gathering, he joined the guerrilla forces, and in the early forties, Chen Zhongzhu's team was sent out by Li Changjiang, a Kuomintang reactionary who did not do anything, to fight against the New Fourth Army, and finally suffered a crushing defeat.
Chen Yi
After that, the Nationalist army negotiated peace with Chen Yi, the representative of the New Fourth Army, and Chen Zhongzhu also participated in it, and during the negotiations, Chen Zhongzhu was deeply impressed by Chen Yi's spirit and personality. However, his superior, Li Changjiang, who could not cover himself, defected to the Wang puppet government, and Chen Zhongzhu, as the commander of the guerrilla column, knew that if he did not obey, he would definitely be the first person li Changjiang to open the knife.
When the War of Resistance against Japan was imminent, Chen Zhongzhu resolutely chose not to be a slave to the subjugated state, led his soldiers to fight against Li Changjiang's encirclement, and successfully escaped from the encirclement and turned to Li Mingyang, who although Li Mingyang was Li Changjiang's superior, li Mingyang opposed Li Changjiang's approach.
Mr. and Mrs. Chen Zhongzhu
After that, Chen Zhongzhu followed Li Mingyang and began to cooperate with the New Fourth Army, but because of this, Chen Zhongzhu became a thorn in the eyes of traitors and was often assassinated in secret. On one occasion, the Japanese army and the puppet army launched an encirclement and suppression of Chen Zhongzhu's headquarters, and it was also in this breakthrough that the 35-year-old Chen Zhongzhu was killed on the spot by the Japanese army.
After killing Chen Zhongzhu, the Japanese army specially found Chen Zhongzhu's body and cut off his head to take him away, at this time, Chen's wife Wang Zhifang and her eldest daughter, who were still pregnant with fainting, were devastated after hearing the news of Chen Zhongzhu's murder, and after seeing Chen Zhongzhu whose head was cut off, they almost fainted several times.
Wang Zhifang, who was later wanted, made a crazy decision, she took the coffins of her daughter and husband on the way to the Japanese base, and when she arrived at the destination, the leader of the Japanese military command returned Chen Zhongzhu's head when he saw the woman in tattered clothes and big belly in front of her.
Wang Zhifang and his children
In this way, Wang Zhifang buried her husband, took her three children to live a difficult life, but never married again, until the late 1980s, Chen Zhongzhu was posthumously recognized as a martyr of the anti-Japanese revolution, Wang Zhifang raised the children into people with lofty ideals, spent the rest of his life in memory of his husband, and wrote the great love and beauty of human nature with actions.
After writing this story with tears, I felt a lot of emotion in my heart. Salute to the martyrs! Tribute to the families of the martyrs!
