Today, we are living in an era of peace, with advanced development of science and technology, a happy life, no foreign enemies to invade, and the motherland has a place in the world and has the right to speak.
However, more than 80 years later, China was in the midst of the collapse of the Qing Dynasty, the invasion of China by the Japanese coalition forces, and the rule of the Kuomintang.
In 1937, after the Lugou Bridge Incident, Japan's war of aggression against China broke out, and the Chinese military and people united to resist the Japanese invaders. The people of all ethnic groups and all walks of life throughout the country responded enthusiastically, and the anti-Japanese salvation movement was unprecedentedly high, opening the prelude to the national War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.
Chen Kangrong was one of them, who resolutely threw herself into the anti-Japanese revolution when the country was in danger, but unfortunately fell into the hands of the enemy and suffered cruel torture by the Japanese invaders, and the torture for three days and three nights did not make her succumb.
Even though he was seriously injured, Chen Kangrong still used his last strength to shout the passionate slogan "Long live the Communist Party of China, down with Japanese imperialism", and his firmness and bravery were admirable......
He had a carefree childhood, and after returning to China, he joined the revolution
In 1915, Chen Kangrong was born in a patriotic family of overseas Chinese in Burma, his ancestral home was Fujian, and his father Chen Ximei participated in the League led by Sun Yat-sen, which can be regarded as an old revolutionary.
After the Xinhai Revolution, Chen Ximei went to Myanmar and started an arduous journey of survival in a foreign land. With his flexible mind, he soon became a well-known wealthy businessman, and it can be said that Chen Kangrong's childhood life was happy and carefree.
Until the age of 15, Tan lived in Myanmar, where there were not many wars, and all he saw was peace, and like many others, he looked forward to the future.
After 1930, Chen Ximei returned to the motherland with her daughter, and Chen Kangrong entered Jimei School, where he spent his teenage years until he graduated from high school.
In 1935, Tran Kangrong embarked on a journey back to Mandalay, Burma, where he not only shouldered the mission of teaching and educating people, but also passionately devoted himself to the revolutionary wave advocated by the Communist Party of Burma.
Later, she returned to the embrace of the motherland and entered Xiamen University with excellent grades, and it was not until this time that she realized that the world was not as beautiful as she imagined.
In the campus life, she can study quietly, but outside the campus is full of devastation, lonely elderly people and children without parents are everywhere, the situation is turbulent, and the people are living in dire straits.
While studying in the Department of Literature of Xiamen University, there was an underground party organization of Xiamen University in a hidden corner of the campus, and Chen Kangtong secretly swore allegiance to the Communist Party of China, and since then he has embarked on the road of pursuing revolutionary ideals.
In those passionate years, she held an important position in the women's branch of the Xiamen Working Committee of the Communist Party of China and became one of the leaders of the Xiamen women's anti-Japanese salvation movement.
On July 7, 1937, the Lugou Bridge Incident broke out, and Japan's full-scale war of aggression against China began, and the patriotic enthusiasm of all the people erupted like a volcano.
Both peddlers and pawns and elites from all walks of life have a common wish, that is, to expel the greedy and dehumanized Japanese invaders from the country.
The group of middle school students in the patriotic torrent is particularly eye-catching, they were originally young people with "books as their companions and dreams", but since Japan's iron hooves trampled on the mainland soil, the energetic students put down their pen and ink and threw themselves into the battlefield without hesitation.
As the invaders raged, the land of China became more and more turbulent, and her father, Chen Ximei, became increasingly concerned about his daughter.
He had already planned everything carefully, intending to bring Chen Kangrong back to distant Burma, where he would get her a decent job and find a place of peace for her in the midst of the war.
But at a time when the country was in danger and the whole people were saving the country, how could Chen Kangrong be a "deserter", euphemistically rejected the comfortable road paved for her by his father in Myanmar, and left the shelter of the school to devote himself to the turbulent wave of anti-Japanese salvation.
Propaganda of revolutionary anti-Japanese resistance
Chen Kangrong successively became a member of the Xiamen Branch of the Chinese Women's Association of Anti-Japanese War Soldiers, the Xiamen Cultural Circles Anti-Enemy Support Association, and the Xiamen Anti-Enemy Support Association of All Walks of Life, and shouldered the important responsibility of the head of the propaganda unit.
In those turbulent years, she wielded the sharp pen in her hand like a warrior wielding a sword to fight against the invaders.
In the spring of 1938, at the height of the anti-Japanese salvation movement in Xiamen, Chen Kangrong embarked on a journey to western Fujian with the party's mission.
After that, he devoted himself to the local rural propaganda work, participated in the training class held by the Special Committee of the Communist Party of China in Southwest Fujian, and contributed his own strength to the cause of the National War of Resistance.
After the training course ended, he received a new mission from his superiors, embarked on the road to Qiling Township, Yongding County, and took up the post of propaganda and education of the party branch.
At this time, Chen Kangrong's public identity was an ordinary township teacher, ostensibly teaching children to learn in the classroom, but in fact privately promoting patriotic anti-Japanese thoughts.
At that time, the smoke of gunpowder was full of war, Chen Kangrong took Qiling Primary School as a position, and carefully weaved a network of anti-enemy support, and the anti-Japanese passion was surging everywhere inside and outside the school.
She used all kinds of vivid methods, from classroom preaching to writing posters, from the mobilization of rallies to the infection of speeches, to ignite the fire in the hearts of the masses with her own voice, and to summon them to devote themselves to the great struggle to resist Japan and save the country.
In general, Chen Kangrong has always disseminated the party's anti-Japanese war policy, explained the belief in victory, and inspired people's great enthusiasm for donating money and goods to the front line and supporting the anti-Japanese war.
As time passed, more and more people in southern Fujian threw themselves into the revolution, and little by little they gathered great forces to reserve solid strength for the upcoming battle.
It was clear that Chen Kangrong's propaganda was very effective, and if it continued like this, more people would respond to the call to join the revolution, but all this was shattered in 1940.
In 1940, Wang Jingwei committed treason and defected to the enemy, established a puppet Nationalist government in Nanjing, and became a traitor, and his defection to the enemy also influenced many people to follow suit and defect to Japan. For a time, the situation was turbulent, and many underground party members were in danger of being exposed at any time, and Chen Kangrong was one of them.
The companion was treasonous, and Chen Kangrong would rather die than give in after being arrested
Chen Kangrong had a close friend of the past, and suddenly one day the identity of an underground party member was exposed, and he chose to betray because he could not bear the torture.
Soon after, Chen's true identity was revealed, and the Japanese arrested him, and a long and painful ordeal ensued.
On the night of July 16, 1940, Chen Kangrong received an urgent order to retreat, and by this time he was already aware of the crisis, but it was too late.
Just as she was packing her bags and preparing to leave, enemy forces suddenly attacked and surrounded her place.
Realizing that he was in danger, Chen Kangrong quickly returned to the room, swallowed the letter containing valuable information, and then took the shirt from the window as a warning of danger, and did one last thing for his companion.
When the Japanese army came to her, Chen Kangrong calmly faced the arrest, and in order to get information from her, the enemy escorted her back overnight for interrogation.
The first person to interrogate Chen Kangrong in the interrogation room was the traitor Zhang Yaoxuan, and it is worth mentioning that the other party was not only her former classmate, but also one of many suitors.
At that time, Zhang Yaoxuan adopted a strategy of both grace and power, on the one hand, forcing Chen Kangrong to reveal the secrets of the Communist Party's underground organization, and on the other hand, using marriage as a bait to try to make her belong to himself.
Chen Kangrong is a woman who swears not to be a slave, and would rather build the Great Wall with her flesh and blood than betray, without the slightest hesitation, she sternly rejected Zhang Yaoxuan's brazen conditions.
After that, Tan Sixin, the head of the security regiment, persuaded him to surrender on even more attractive terms, claiming that if he surrendered, he would give Chen Kangrong countless glory and wealth, and would let her live a peaceful life away from the battlefield afterwards.
If Chen Kangrong liked these back then, he would not have given up the good life in Myanmar, and chose to stay in the domestic revolution.
Seeing that Chen Kangrong was soft and didn't eat, the Japanese soldiers ruthlessly stripped off her clothes, waved a leather whip soaked in salt water, and whipped her body fiercely.
With each drop of the whip, a heart-pounding sound echoed in the air, and shocking blood marks appeared on the body.
During this period, the enemy promised that if Chen Kangrong could write a letter of surrender within three days, he would open the net and reunite her with her relatives, otherwise he would be flayed and tortured.
In the face of this palpitating death threat, Chen Kangrong bravely faced the enemy without changing his face, and used poetry as a response in righteous words: "Youth is incomparably valuable, why mention reunion." In order to uphold justice, why not be afraid to peel off heavy skins! ”
When the Japanese and traitors heard this, they understood that she would not surrender no matter what they said, and immediately planned to kill her.
Instead of giving Chen Kangrong a painful relief, the enemy chose a gruesome way, or brutally tortured her before dying.
In the desolate wilderness, ruthless enemies tied her up and stabbed her skin bit by bit with cold bayonets......
In the end, Chen Kangrong was tortured only one breath, but the torture was still not over, and they pushed her into a pre-dug earth pit, where she struggled on the edge of life and death to be buried alive.
As he was pushed into the pit and filled with earth, Chen Kangrong used his last strength to shout "Long live the Communist Party of China, down with Japanese imperialism!" Later, at the age of 25, she died heroically, sticking to the original intention of the revolution at the cost of her own life.
In order to commemorate Chen Kangrong, in November 1944, Yongding County established a guerrilla force in Pengkeng Village, Jinfeng Mountain, and named it "Kangrong Detachment".
After its establishment, this guerrilla force actively carried out the struggle against stubbornness and self-defense, and gradually developed and grew over time, and finally ushered in the victory of the anti-Japanese revolutionary war.
Looking back on the past, how many heroic young people dedicated their youth to the country and interpreted what patriotism is with their actions, risking their lives just to welcome the dawn of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, and Chen Kangrong is undoubtedly one of them. What do you think differently about this?
