Ancient wonders say

Everyone in the temple who offers all kinds of things is no stranger, after all, we have all kinds of Chinese folk worship. But

Inside the temple is dedicated to the People's Liberation Army, have you heard of it?

This temple is not dedicated to gods, only 27 statues of martyrs of the People's Liberation Army! Plaque inscription: The first temple under the heavens

Chongwu Town, Hui'an County, Fujian Province, has such a magical temple, which does not have a statue of a god and Buddha, but is mighty

There are 27 statues of PLA soldiers

。 What's going on here?

In fact, the temples of ancient China enshrined a variety of things, and when many dynasties were just established, they often built new 'gods'. For example, some soldiers who died in the war may be killed if their merits are very large

'Fengshen Shen'

People who die in some major wars also have a chance

It is worshipped as a deity by the local people.

For example, Yang Jiajian's

Yang Ye

When he died in battle in the north, whether it was the local people or the Song Dynasty court, or even the Liao people felt great respect for him. Therefore, many temples were built in the place where he was sacrificed, and the more famous ones were

Yang Invincible Temple

; Water Margin

Zhang Shun

He was killed in battle, and was later knighted for various deeds

General Jinhua

Statue of Yang Ye

So from the perspective of these historical cultures, in fact, in the hearts of the traditional Chinese people,

The 'gods' offered to them are somewhat equivalent to the heroes.

whereas

Many 'gods' in Chinese history have actually been heroes

For example, we have worship in many places

Guan yu

habits. Guan Yu is one in history

Heroic characters

And those in history

A man who has given everything for the common people

, is often also Chinese

Worship as a deity

。 For example, ours

The yellow emperor of the first ancestor of humanities

And for that

To deal with the great flood three times through the door of the house and not to enter the Dayu

。 They have all been worshipped throughout the dynasties.

And the reason why Fujian Province has such a magical temple,

To a large extent, it is consistent with the worship of heroes by ordinary people in history

General Ye Fei

In September 1949, he was the commander of the Ten Corps of Sanno

Fei

send

251st Regiment, 84th Division, 28th Army

head for

Xishawan, Chongwu Town, Fujian Province

One belt, ready to participate

Battle of the Golden Gate

At that time, chiang had lost control of the mainland, but because he had the support and assistance of the United States, he was there

In terms of weapons and equipment, we are still much more advanced than us

。 Therefore, this battle still has a lot of casualties.

However, for the common people at that time, the War of Resistance Against Japan was now over. Although the civil war is still being fought, after all, both sides are Chinese, and how to live is still necessary. especially

The people who were in a state of disarray did not eat or wear

At this time they were not too afraid of war, but rather

Want to work as much as you can

, to earn yourself an extra portion of food, talent

Fill your stomach and live

Chongwu Town's former hated mother and daughter were working.

The hated talent of that year

He was only 13 years old

For us modern people, a 13-year-old girl should still be reading and playing at home. But at that time

At the age of 13, I have already started to work

So when she was young, she also followed her mother

Go to the beach to cook sweet potato fields

Sweet potato is a very

High yielding crops

In the era of war and chaos,

Grow a little sweet potato with limited land and labor

, is to make yourself a family

There is enough to eat the best way

。 So even though they knew that there had been a war here recently, their mother and daughter still came out to work.

This should not delay the harvest for a year

They saw the People's Liberation Army walking nearby, but they didn't panic a lot because of it.

Ordinary people know that their discipline is very high and will not affect the lives of ordinary people along the way.

The soldiers of the 251st Regiment also had great respect for them and did not bother their mother and daughter in the past.

However, this peaceful scene was suddenly destroyed

A huge roar broke

Suddenly the sky flew in

Aircraft of the National Army

The mother who had hated it suddenly became nervous. Because the nationalist side did not have such good discipline, so she

Pulling her daughter to try to escape

Who knew this crucial time, and hated to be frightened by the sudden arrival of planes in the sky and the bombs that kept coming down and exploding.

She couldn't take a step for a moment, and she was stunned

And the plane in the sky doesn't care that their mother and daughter are unrelated people,

A huge wave of explosions and shock waves came towards Zeng Hate.

Hated had not yet understood what was going on, suddenly

Fainted

This temple is not dedicated to gods, only 27 statues of martyrs of the People's Liberation Army! Plaque inscription: The first temple under the heavens

At the moment when I lost consciousness, I hated it

I thought I was going to lose my life

。 However, after a while she woke up, and she only felt

There were several heavy figures pressing down on her

After crawling out of these heavy figures, she found herself

Although his body was covered with blood, he was not injured much

And the figures that threw her below, one by one, fell there in the uniforms of the People's Liberation Army,

There was no more sign of life.

On the beach from near and far, there are craters left by bombs. Elsewhere, there are also some faint figures of warriors sacrificing.

The mother who had hated it rushed over to pull her daughter away and told her about the situation here.

It turned out that the nationalist planes were indiscriminately bombed by the military and the people, so the soldiers of the 251st Regiment immediately began to rescue the local people.

Originally, these battle-hardened warriors wanted to

Self-protection is easy

But to save these scattered people, it is relatively much more troublesome. But these warriors, who were supposed to go to battle, saw that the lives of the nearby people were in danger

Bravely stand up and protect them

The warriors are therefore the same

The price was paid dearly

The number of warriors who fell on Zeng Hate to protect Zeng Hate alone reached three, and the total number of warriors who died to protect the people in the vicinity was enough

As many as 27 people

Whether they had hated mothers and daughters or other villagers, they were extremely touched by this.

This temple is not dedicated to gods, only 27 statues of martyrs of the People's Liberation Army! Plaque inscription: The first temple under the heavens

Together with the other villagers,

Helped the warriors bury the heroes who sacrificed their lives on the spot

。 In order not to let the grave be forgotten, they also used ingenuity to be at the grave

Built a small room

And then

Put the spiritual seats of the 27 heroes in the small room.

However, the mother who had hated it was not reassured.

Like the common people in our history, the mother who hated once believed that these sacrificial heroes were also spiritual. So after that, he often brought his daughter here, cleaned up the neighborhood of the hut, and paid homage to the heroes who rescued them.

While worshiping these heroes, the mother who hated once told zeng hate:

Your life was saved by the PLA, and you have to repay the PLA.

This temple is not dedicated to gods, only 27 statues of martyrs of the People's Liberation Army! Plaque inscription: The first temple under the heavens

But as a traditional farmer, she couldn't think of a good way. Therefore, in the traditional way of thinking, I hated that the conditions would be better in the future

Build a temple for the People's Liberation Army

Let them enjoy incense for generations to come

In order to repay the PLA's life-saving grace.

However, at that time, she hated her mother, where she had the money to build the temple, so she did not fulfill this wish until her death in 1980.

Before she died, she still hated zeng about it.

Zeng, who had been so educated by his mother since he was a child, naturally thought about this matter.

So she did it for a while

Make a little go a long way

The savings even left some of the mother behind

The relics were sold

, but it is still impossible to build a high-standard temple. However, her idea was supported by many people, because many ordinary people in the local area remembered the heroic deeds of the warriors, so the local villagers gave it to her

More than 600,000 yuan was collected

finally

The construction of this temple began

Construction began in 1993 and was officially completed in 1996

There are no other statues of gods and Buddhas in this big temple,

There are only 27 PLA soldiers who are cool and heroic.

At the same time, Zeng Hate also built a martyrs' memorial and martyrs' monument nearby, a temple that is particularly rare throughout the country, and soon

It has become famous throughout the country

Of the year

General Ye Fei

After hearing about it, I was particularly moved, and not only emotionally expressed my feelings:

The people have feelings!

He also sent a special inscription:

Die gloriously for the people!

Zeng Hate carved this handwriting on the monument.

This temple is not dedicated to gods, only 27 statues of martyrs of the People's Liberation Army! Plaque inscription: The first temple under the heavens

And the comrades of the 27 martyrs who died, also

Plaques were presented to this magical temple

。 This temple gradually gained great fame in the local area, even

Events are held every year on September 17

Nearby schools and units

Patriotic education

, this place is often indispensable as well.

However, many people may also feel a little incongruous. After all, we don't talk about the historical set of thinking, and the statues of the warriors are carved here.

Isn't it inappropriate to commemorate it?

In fact, Xiaobian thinks it is still appropriate.

In fact, most ordinary people in history are also very aware that the heroes they have carved have long disappeared into the long river of history. But they carved the statues of the heroes before they died,

The purpose is not necessarily just to commemorate the heroic souls, but more importantly, to let people remember their events and remember their heroic spirit.

Just like Guan Yu walking a single ride for thousands of miles, being in Cao Ying's heart in Han, these allusions and these temples are superimposed, just like that

It has become a unique way to spur future generations to learn his spirit

Only in all the dynasties will ordinary people do this.

This temple is not dedicated to gods, only 27 statues of martyrs of the People's Liberation Army! Plaque inscription: The first temple under the heavens

It's just that our approach is different from the West's.

After the sacrifice of Comrade Zhang Side that year, the great man also held a memorial service for him, and

With the help of this memorial service, zhang side's spirit was promoted

, and has achieved good results nationwide.

But for ordinary people, one

It is also unrealistic to hold memorial services every year

Two

Nor are they used to the form of memorial services

。 So

Change to the form of the temple they are more accustomed to

, in this form

More convenient for their long-lasting memory

, also at the same time

It is convenient for generations to pass on the spirit of these 27 martyrs

Although the 27 martyrs have been transformed into history, their spirit will continue to be passed down from generation to generation in the hearts of all those who pass through this temple, and will grow new fruits.

This temple is not dedicated to gods, only 27 statues of martyrs of the People's Liberation Army! Plaque inscription: The first temple under the heavens

This in itself has transcended the existence of the temple and becomes

A spiritual legacy

moreover

Continues to affect the living

Give more strength and support to the living.
