Mr. Yang, a citizen, recently told this reporter that he is a descendant of Yang Zhenhong, a revolutionary hero of the Xinhai Revolution. This year marks the 110th anniversary of the Xinhai Revolution, and he and his family hope that the authorities will name a new street near Kunming No. 31 Middle School in Xiaojie Community, Guandu District, Kunming City, Yang Zhenhong's hometown, "Zhenhong Road." The road is named in this way to commemorate Yang Zhenhong and promote the spirit of patriotism. As a sign of commemoration of the revolutionary pioneers, I hope that this proposal will be echoed by the relevant departments.
It is understood that Mr. Yang is more than 50 years old this year. Living in the Xiaojie community in Guandu District, Mr. Yang claims that he is the great-grandson of Yang Zhenhong, and the whole family is proud of Yang Zhenhong.
He introduced to reporters that Yang Zhenhong's hometown, The Xiaojie Community in Guandu District, is a place where people excel, and Yang Zhenhong was born and raised in Sisi. After Yang Zhenhong's failure to launch the Yongchang Uprising, the Tengyue Uprising that followed fired the first shot of the Xinhai Revolution in Yunnan. Then the Chongjiu Rebellion broke out, overthrowing the Qing Dynasty's rule in Yunnan. Dr. Sun Yat-sen ordered Yang Zhenhong to be posthumously awarded Yang Zhenhong the title of "General of the Left" and "Zhongyi", and the Yunnan Military Government's Governor's Office moved his remains to Taibao Mountain and cast his bronze statue in Kunming Jinbi Park to commemorate it.
He told reporters that more than 10 years ago, the Small Street community also built a house built to commemorate Yang Zhenhong, which was exquisitely carved and imposing, and the family lived in it. At the same time, near the former Guannan Highway, there are two tombs of Yang Zhenhong's parents, the graves are located near the intersection of the highway, the tombs are tall and conspicuous, all made of blue striped stone. There is also a tombstone in front of the tomb. People who know Yang Zhenhong's story pass by here and always stop to pay homage to the parents of this revolutionary volunteer and express their respect for this patriot.
However, after the small street community entered the urban village after 2006, the original house has been demolished, and even the two graves of Yang Zhenhong's parents have been moved to another place at the request of the real estate developer.
He said with emotion: "In addition to the elderly, there are fewer and fewer people who can tell the history and related stories of Yang Zhenhong, and the young people in the neighborhood rarely know that there was such a patriot as Yang Zhenhong in the small street." ”
As a descendant of Yang Zhenhong, Mr. Yang is worried. He said: "We can't let Yang Zhenhong's stories and deeds be broken in the hands of our generation, if that is the case, it will be a great disrespect to the ancestors, and at the same time it will be irresponsible to history." To this end, he wants to suggest through this newspaper that the relevant departments can name Yang Zhenhong's hometown - a street in the small street "Zhenhong Road", so that Yang Zhenhong can leave some traces in his hometown, let more people know Yang Zhenhong's story, and stimulate the enthusiasm of loving the country and hometown.
The reporter learned that the original small street community has now been developed into real estate, and the original entire small street houses and houses have been demolished and now become a real estate real estate. There are several schools such as Kunming No. 31 Middle School nearby, there are more young people, and some roads have been reserved in the newly built buildings, but there is no name yet.
After on-the-spot interviews, it was found that the elderly neighbors near the Xiaojie community in Guandu District have always been proud of having such a revolutionary volunteer. Some neighbors said that more than 10 years ago, the small street still preserved houses, objects and even bronze hanging statues built in honor of Yang Zhenhong.
Some villagers also reported that some scholars-like people had come to the small street to visit The relevant relics and stories of Yang Zhenhong, but due to the demolition of the village in the city and the continuous death of the elderly, these people "came with pleasure and went away disappointed" and sighed, issuing a sigh that "if there is no rescue and protection, Yang Zhenhong's deeds will not be passed on in his hometown".
Yang Jian, a scholar who has long been concerned about the study of dianchi folk culture, said: The small street in Guandu District is Yang Zhenhong's hometown, and there will be many related resources, and I hope that the relevant departments can attach importance to and protect the cultural heritage of Yang Zhenhong's hometown. It is a good idea to name a new road in the small street community as "Zhenhong Road", and there are similar practices outside the province that are worth learning. After the regional adjustment of Guandu District, there are not many such patriotic education resources themselves, and there are many schools near the small streets, and there are more young people, so as to add a road with historical and cultural value to this area, so that the younger generation can remember historical figures, learn more about history, remember history, and learn from the patriotic spirit of Yang Zhenhong, a hometown person, and increase pride and honor.
A person in Guandu District who has been engaged in the study of party history for many years said that Baoshan has done a very good job in commemorating Yang Zhenhong, not only building a cemetery for Yang Zhenhong in Taibao Mountain, but also announcing that in 1987, the cemetery and other facilities were announced as a cultural relics protection unit in Yunnan Province. The poems left by Yang Zhenhong have also been excavated, and most of these poems are nostalgic for current events, which clearly show the deep feelings of a revolutionary who is worried about the country and the people and the heroic spirit of seeing death as a homecoming, and can play an important role in the study and education of the "four histories".

Introduction of Yang Zhenhong
Yang Zhenhong (1873~1908), Xiaojie Community, Guandu District, Kunming. In 1903, he studied in Japan at the official expense and entered the Zhenwu School.
In 1905, Sun Yat-sen formed the Chinese League in Tokyo, and Yang was one of the first backbone members to join the association. The following year, Sun Yat-sen sent him back to Yunnan to form the Yunnan General Association of the League. After returning to Yunnan, he served as the principal of Yunnan Gymnastics School and actively carried out revolutionary activities. In this regard, Ding Zhenduo, the governor of Yungui, was aware of this and transferred him to the pipe belt of the Western Yunnan Patrol Battalion.
After Yang took office in Tengyue, he created the Tengyue branch of the League, and developed more than 300 people, including Zhang Wenguang, Peng Ye, and Dao Anren, to join the alliance. He went to Yangon and Hu Hanmin to found the "Guanghua Daily" and founded the Yangon Branch of the League. In 1908, the Yongchang Uprising was secretly organized, but the news leaked, the uprising failed, and he retired to Baoshan Pumiao.
Because he failed to perform three uprisings, he became ill with overwork, exhausted, and died of hatred at the age of 35. Two years later, the Wuchang Uprising broke out, the whole country responded, and the Tengyue Uprising fired the first shot of the Xinhai Revolution in Yunnan. Then the Chongjiu Rebellion broke out, overthrowing the Qing Dynasty's rule in Yunnan. The Xinhai Uprising in Yunnan began with Zhang Wenguang, and Yang Zhenhong had the merit of "initiating the initiative". Cai Yi, the governor of the Yunnan military government, wrote: "Yunnan Guangfu first advocated the tomb of Yang Zhongyi. ”
Dr. Sun Yat-sen ordered the posthumous gift of "General Zuo" and "Zhongyi", and the Yunnan Military Governor's Office moved his remains to Taibao Mountain and cast his bronze statue in Kunming Jinbi Park to commemorate it.
According to the collection and collation of Sun Zhiming, a native scholar in Yunnan, a number of people have written books and biographies for Yang Zhenhong: Zhao Fan wrote "The Tomb Table of Mr. Qiufan, the First Advocate of Guangfu in Yunnan"; Li Gen wrote "Yang Jun Zhenhong's Deeds"; Zhu Zu Geng's "Biography of Yang Jun, The Gift of The Left General Kunming Yang Jun"; Lu Zhiyi's "Biography of Yang Zhenhong"; Ye Zuyin's "Records of the History of Yang Zhenhong"; and Mr. Fang Shumei's compilation of the "Supplement to the Biography of the Southern Yunnan Monument" and the compilation of the texts as the first compilation.
The practice of naming roads after the pioneers of the Xinhai Revolution
According to Hubei Daily, Peng Liu Yang Road connects the Yangtze River Bridge and Wuluo Road in the east through Shouyi Square, and Jiefang Road in the west at Linjiang Avenue, with a total length of 1400 meters. Originally known as Pingyue Road, in 1948, in order to commemorate the three martyrs Peng Chufan, Liu Fuji and Yang Hongsheng who died in the Xinhai Revolution, it was renamed Peng Liu Yang Road.
Nowadays, Peng Liu Yang Road has been repaired and expanded many times, increasing the greening of the streetscape, placing sculptures, decorating street houses, and paving colorful pavements, making the old street more new. The construction of Pengliuyang Road Station of Metro Line 5 was also started on March 26, 2018, and is expected to be completed by the end of 2019. (Cloud News client reporter Li Hongfeng)
