In the comfortable era, we naturally do not feel the flames of war. A happy family, happiness and well-being are also the things that every ordinary person today hopes for.
In the early 20th century, harmonious family life, daily ease and peace, seemed so difficult. After the Republic of China period, New China was slowly conceived, and during this period it experienced a difficult War of Resistance Against Japan.
In war, casualties are inevitable, and only the families of those who have been killed or injured are the most distressed. In the War of Resistance Against Japan, Yang Jingyu, who was called "Commander Yang" by the soldiers, sacrificed himself in the war and left a pair of sons and daughters, but how did they do in their later lives?
Participated in the anti-Japanese war and unfortunately died
Since the outbreak of the Lugou Bridge Incident after 1937, the Japanese army has been given the opportunity to take advantage of this reason to aggressively invade Chinese territory. When Japanese imperialism invaded China, it seemed that there was a premeditated plan, first opening a small opening from the three northeastern provinces into China, and then invading on a large scale.
This move once aroused the dissatisfaction and resistance of all patriotic youth and patriotic soldiers at that time, and the whole country began to resist the War of Resistance. At this time, Yang Jingyu was in the northeast, due to the weak national strength at that time, our army was not as strong as the Japanese army, and in the northeast region of Maojiang County, the army led by Yang Jingyu had been heavily surrounded by the Japanese army.
At this critical juncture, Yang Jingyu thought of circling with the Japanese and hiding his army first, but unfortunately one of the soldiers in the army was captured and killed by the Japanese. At this time, the Japanese soldiers were more certain that Yang Jingyu was nearby, so they intensified their search. Judging from the whole situation, Yang Jingyu had no chance of winning this battle.
But he resolutely did not choose to surrender, even if the fellow villagers around him advised him many times, there was no need to do this dying struggle. But Yang Jingyu's integrity overcame these rumors. Later, the Japanese swept through the village, and Yang Jingyu took some of the remaining soldiers to the top of the mountain to hide.
When many people in the army saw this situation, they surrendered and defected in turn, and revealed Yang Jingyu's location and route to the Japanese army. Desperate, Yang Jingyu was eventually surrounded by a group of Japanese troops in a forest, and until the Japanese army found him and killed him, he stubbornly confronted the Japanese army and resolutely opposed surrender.
Outnumbered, Yang Jingyu eventually fell in a pool of blood and unfortunately died. The news of Yang Jingyu's sacrifice spread to the central government and to the wives and children of the family, all of whom lamented and lamented it, and the government also changed the name of the county to Jingyu County in order to commemorate Yang Jingyu.
Good wife and mother, single out the beams
Before Yang Jingyu participated in the peasant uprising and joined the War of Resistance Against Japan, Yang Jingyu was married early. Although this marriage was decided by Yang's mother for her son, Yang Jingyu still liked this wife in his heart, and the two of them also had a common heart. His wife's name is Guo Lian.
Shortly after the two were married, Yang Jingyu joined the Communist Youth League and later became a member of the Communist Party. In this year, Guo Lian gave birth to yang Jingyu's first son, and Yang Jingyu, who heard the news, immediately returned to his hometown, but only accompanied his son at home, and named his son Ma Congyun.
After this, Yang Jingyu organized a peasant uprising and had the first army strength of his own. Yang Jingyu's wife was maliciously harassed by Kou in her hometown, so that Guo Lian had to flee with her newborn son and her sick mother-in-law.
In the following year, the warlords learned of Yang Jingyu's deeds and decided to start with his family to catch his weaknesses, so Guo Lian hid under a small shed and gave birth to one of Yang Jingyu's daughters while escaping the warlord's pursuit and arrest.
Because he always avoided the pursuit of the warlords at that time, he named his daughter Ma Zang, and many years later, her daughter changed her name to Ma Jinyun. After learning the news that there was another daughter, Yang Jingyu returned to his wife's side, but due to the needs of work, Yang Jingyu only accompanied his wife for one night. The next morning, Yang Jingyu told his wife that he was going to go out, so he handed over the family to his wife Guo Lian.
And his wife Guo Lian did not complain in the slightest, and took on the heavy responsibility of the family's life alone. Then during the War of Resistance Against Japan, the wife and mother-in-law have also been arrested by Japanese soldiers for questioning, and there has been no news of the disappearance of this son, and the mother-in-law who has been hiding from the Japanese army for a long time has cried every day, but in the end she can not withstand the injury.
Before leaving, he instructed Guo Lian: Be sure to wait for Yang Jingyu to return. The death of her mother-in-law is undoubtedly the most painful blow to Guo Lian, but she is still optimistic about life, and she has brought up her two children alone. Until one day in 1944, the Japanese traitors in the village caught Guo Lian and forced guo Lian to inquire about the whereabouts of Yang Jingyu.
Guo Lian was unwilling to say a word to the traitor, so a heavy beating fell on Guo Lian, and even finally pushed Guo Lian into the dung pit. Guo Lian, who returned home, had no medicine to wipe and could only wash with water, but unfortunately the wound was infected and she also left the world.
The children are both Junjie
Before their mother's death, they were told to find their father, whose name was Ma Shangde. According to their mother's dying words, the two inquired a lot of news, and they had never heard the name Ofmachande.
But by chance, a group of people came to the village in a car to find Ma Congyun and told him: "You are Commander Yang's son!" And Ma Congyun was puzzled, saying that his surname was Ma and not Yang. Only to hear the man explain: "Commander Yang's first name before he died was Ma Shangde. ”
Ma Congyun, who suddenly realized, learned that his father was a great hero who had died heroically during the Anti-Japanese War. Later, under the arrangement of the central government, Ma Congyun was sent to study at a railway school in Xinyang.
During this period, everyone around them learned that Ma Congyun was the son of Commander Yang and wanted to give him preferential treatment, and even the government offered special care for him, but Ma Congyun declined.
After completing his studies, he entered the railway bureau of Zhengzhou City and made his own contribution to the country's transportation construction. During his work, Ma Congyun has always been strict with himself. But one day in 1964, Ma Congyun died in his post due to overwork and improper rest.
At this time, she also worked in a nursery school in Zhengzhou like her brother, taking care of the flowers that cultivated a new generation of flowers in the motherland, Ma Jinyun never applied for any special treatment from her superiors, and lived a dull life every day.
brief summary:
Yang Jingyu's wife and children are like Yang Jingyu, and those rare heroic qualities are reflected in them. It is precisely because of them that the country will become rich and strong, and the nation will become rich and strong.
During the war years, Yang Jingyu put the interests of the country first and sacrificed his small family as a big country's overall view to make indelible contributions to the success of China's War of Resistance Against Japan.
His children, too, serve the people with their youthful blood. We should pay tribute to Yang Jingyu and his family.
