Hometown tonight thinking of thousands of miles, frost sideburns Ming Dynasty another year. - Gao Shi
After 8 years of war, its hardships and sufferings are still deeply imprinted in the hearts of the Chinese people and will never be erased. In this war of aggression, which has cost so much, there has been social unrest; Today, there are still many overseas Chinese who have been stranded overseas because of the war
In a foreign country, he searched for his homeland and relatives.
Today, we want to talk about the legend of such an elderly man.
The family was poor and displaced
Guang Junming was born in a remote mountain village in Shanxi Province. His childhood was not good: his father joined the army and fought, his life and death were uncertain, and his mother was frail and sick.
Under the burden of poverty, Guang Junming's adoptive mother had to send her daughter away
。 Mother and son are dependent on each other, but life is still not enough. At that time, it was the early stage of the War of Resistance, and the adoptive mother met Lieutenant Guo who was stationed in the local area by chance.
In order to let Junming receive a better education
The adoptive mother asked the other party to take her son and give him the opportunity to go to school.
Lieutenant Guo had sympathized with the mother and son's plight.
He immediately accepted it and named him "Junming".
In the days that followed, Guang Junming followed the 27th Army around. After arriving at the base area,
The kind Lieutenant Guo kept his promise,
Send Junming to a local primary school to study. Fast forward to 1943, and Lieutenant Guo's 27th Army was in Jiyuan County, which bordered jinnan
He was attacked by the enemy.
Because the attack was too sudden, the Chinese troops were outnumbered and eventually defeated. Junming, who was only eight years old at the time, was also taken prisoner and taken to the enemy camp.
Perhaps it was the goddess of fate secretly taking pity on this poor boy who had no father and no mother
。 The Japanese army never executed Guang Junming, and because he was clever and clever, he shaved his head for many years, and the officers named him "Guang Boy" and placed him in the army to do some miscellaneous service. Later, Guang Junming traveled with his army and finally reached the vicinity of Southeast Asia. On August 14, 1945, the artillery fire that had oppressed Chinese for eight years came to an end.
Horde in a Prisoner of War camp in Thailand is finally able to return to his hometown.
Willow dark flowers bright, success and fame
However, Guang Junming has been reduced to an orphan, and his relatives have not been heard from. In this situation, the Japanese military doctor Kachi Masataka took the initiative to petition to take in this poor little prisoner of war.
Due to Guang Junming's special status
The resident commander also drew up a petition, which was formally filed along with the Japanese military command
Establish the adoptive father-son relationship between Mitsutoshi Akira and Kachi Masataka.
After this, Kaji Masayamoto was a healer, and after this, he led Toshiaki to Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan.
He took on the life of Guang Junming with full power
, not only cured him of the stubborn disease caused by hunger and poverty,
He also fully supported his studies.
This kind of care as his own makes Guang Junming thrive and study hard,
The teenager certainly didn't disappoint
。
In 1955, Hikari was admitted to a business school and joined the Kobe Trading Company after graduation. His work ability is very good, very appreciated by his superiors,
He was soon promoted to a higher position
。 In the same year, he also met the love of his life, Miss Fanzi, in Japan, and successfully entered the marriage hall with her. After marriage, Guang Junming started the second spring of his career and created his own import and export company.
And became a successful businessman.
Despite the happiness and happiness of life, the harmony of the qinser,
The sons and daughters are also growing up slowly, and Guang Junming always has great regrets in his heart
。 After decades of wandering overseas, he has never forgotten his roots in China, and at the same time, the miss and gratitude for his relatives in middle age are also torturing him, forcing him to make up his mind.
Return to China in search of long-lost loved ones.
In 1986, With the consent of his adoptive father, Hikari Junming, who had been living in Japan for 40 years, submitted a request to the Chinese Embassy in Japan to find his relatives.
Resolutely embarked on the arduous journey of searching for relatives for thousands of miles.
Thorns blocked the road, and the search for relatives was fruitless
Because of the passage of time, the hometown has long been a thing of the past, and the land full of bomb craters and blackened has become a thing of the past, but the simple customs of those beautiful mountains and rivers no longer exist.
Guang Junming inquired in many ways in Shanxi Province,
Nor is there any specific reliable information. But he still did not give up, and finally got traces of the old man who matched his adoptive mother's description in the Shanxi Canal. It is difficult to hide the anxiety and excitement in his heart, Guang Junming rushed to the destination, but he was disappointed to deny this "mother".
Once again, the clue was broken.
Sadly, because it was in the 80s when the magazine media was in full swing,
Guang Junming turned to the media for help
In many publications, he published the news of the search for relatives and left his contact number.
Many people were touched by the story of Guang Junming,
Actively looking for clues for him, there are also a number of readers calling that Guang Junming is very similar to the long-lost relatives in the mouth of the elders, and have asked to meet,
But no tangible evidence has been produced
。 Fearing that the leakage of personal information would cause unnecessary trouble, Guang Junming withdrew his report of searching for relatives.
The search for relatives ended in vain.
hitherto
Guang Junming still searches for his relatives through many channels
。 At the same time, for Hikari Toshiaki, who is living in Japan, many expatriates have their hearts in mind. Many Shanxi compatriots have established Shanxi hometown associations in Kobe, Kansai and other places in Japan, and these overseas Chinese in Shanxi collectively visited Guang Junming, who was bedridden, in 2018 and brought him shanxi's specialties.
When I met my fellow countrymen in a foreign land, my eyes were in tears.
The 83-year-old Guang Junming is still in good spirits, talking enthusiastically with a group of Shanxi compatriots, and in the midst of endless gushing,
He still exudes the thought of his loved ones and the nostalgia for his hometown.
Although he may never find his relatives, there are more people in his life who care about him to accompany him.
Accompany him to the end of his life.
Guang Junming's search for relatives has touched many people who have the same opportunity, and the local government in Shanxi has also responded positively and sent sincere blessings to Guang Junming. Now he is almost ninety years old,
Sons and daughters, children and grandchildren,
However, they are still constantly running for Sino-Japanese relations and the peaceful development of the world. The three reprints of his autobiography, The Seven-Year-Old Prisoner, still caused great repercussions, sounding the alarm for those who are now living in peace, and also calling out the voices of many people who suffered from the war: "
War! war! Hopefully, this catastrophe will never happen again
！”
As Lev. As described in Tolstoy's famous book "Farewell to Weapons Forever", we never want humanity to fall into the tragic situation of fratricidal and cannibalism. The blood and tears of heroes in the history books, the expatriates who traveled to other places to call for their loved ones, and those
The suffering souls of countless dead people,
All are a wake-up call to everyone born in the present:
"Cherish life, love life."
May those who died in the war rest in peace, may the heroic souls who died in the war be immortal, may the world be peaceful and peaceful, and may human beings inhabit poetically.
May everything be full of hope and vitality.
