Wang Mingzhang

Xindu Ichi was renamed Mingzhang Middle School

Wang Zhangmin is Wang Mingzhang's cousin. He was 10 years old when the general died. "There were two tombs in Chengdu at that time." He told the Chengdu Business Daily reporter that it turned out that at the beginning of Wang Mingzhang's death, his body was not found, and his hometown built a tomb for him. Unexpectedly, a month or two later, the news came back from the front that the body had been recovered.

Wang Mingzhang had a second wife, the eldest wife Zhou Huayu, and the second wife Ye Yahua, who had many children and later grew into three sons and a daughter. The eldest son, Wang Daohong, the second son, Wang Daoyi, the third son, Wang Daogang, and the younger daughter, Wang Daojie.

The third son, Wang Daogang, and his mother, Ye Yahua, went to Taiwan to live for many years, and in 2005, the mother and son returned to their roots and settled in Chengdu. Later, Ms. Ye died of illness in Chengdu Third Hospital. Today, among the several children, only Wang Daogang is still alive, and later returned to Taiwan.

When Wang Daohong was still alive, Wang Zhangmin had many contacts with him, and the other party often asked him to drink and chat, posing some old things about the general. And Wang Daoyi and Wang Daojie, one in Wuhan and one in Chongqing, the two have been dead for many years, and there is less and less contact with their descendants.

"Every year we have a commemorative event for the general." Wang Zhangmin told the Chengdu Business Daily reporter that the new capital No. 1 Middle School was originally called Mingzhang Middle School, and everyone organized an alumni association, which would gather here every year at September 18 to mourn the general. Regrettably, because everyone is getting older and has limited mobility, fewer and fewer people are attending the commemoration.

Li Jiayu

Every year, the family goes to Guangfu Bridge to pay their respects

"My father once famously said, 'A boy wants to repay the favor of the country, and dying on the battlefield is a good death.'" When his father died, Li Kelin was only 13 years old. He said that his father had made a vow before he went out on the expedition: Now that the time has come to serve the country, I will not leave the family foundation, "which shows that his determination was great at the beginning."

Li Jiayu's third son, Li Kelin, is a professor of archaeology in history at Harakawa University. When my father went out to fight in Sichuan, he was only 6 years old. He once told the media that what can never be forgotten in this life is the bloody body of his father, and he was very impressed, "On the military uniform, the blood has been soaked, full of gun holes and shells, and even the cloth shoes are full of gun holes, which are also bloody." ”

Today, General Li's loyal remains are buried in the "Admiral Li Cemetery" at Guangfu Bridge in Hongpailou, a southern suburb of Chengdu. Li Kelin said that every year on the Qingming Festival and major festivals, my father's descendants in Chengdu go to visit the graves. Li Kelin is the third oldest of the 10 siblings and retired from Sichuan University for many years. He also has another brother, Li Kexi, who worked in the Engineering Bureau of the Upper Reaches of the Yangtze River, and served as a member of the Standing Committee of the Sixth and Seventh Cppcc Committees of Sichuan Province, a member of the Standing Committee of the Ninth CPPCC of Chongqing Municipality, and the vice chairman of the Standing Committee of the Twelfth People's Congress of Chongqing Municipality.

In October last year, the Pujiang County Cultural Bureau and the Daxing Town People's Government also invested more than 500,000 yuan to build a 260-square-meter General Li Jiayu Showroom.

Huang Yonghuai

When the soul returns home, it mourns for 7 days

In the defense of Xuchang against the Japanese Kou, Huang Yonghuai heroically killed the enemy and sacrificed his life for righteousness.

Yesterday, the Chengdu Business Daily reporter interviewed Huang Yonghuai's only grandson, Huang Zhigan, who said that as long as he mentioned his grandfather, he felt particularly proud in his heart, and he often told his two children about these things and taught them to be people with backbones like grandpa.

This year marks the 112th anniversary of Huang Yonghuai's birth, whose only son died in 2000. Huang Zhigan, 67, is his only grandchild and currently lives with his wife in the 16th Village 2nd Community in Gaosheng Township, Anyue County. "I was born in 1947, three years after my grandfather's death." Huang Zhigan introduced that after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War in 1945, his father and others transported their grandfather's loyal bones back to Anyue Longtai for burial, and thousands of people in Anyue County went to Longtai To meet the hero's bones and held a seven-day mourning ceremony.

He said that at present, both daughters are working in the field, and the conditions are good in all aspects, and the only regret in his heart is that there is not a single item about grandpa left in the family.

The pension was built as the first primary school in Lushan

Yesterday afternoon, the 62-year-old Le Jin just touched the door frame and window ledge of the dilapidated old house, and he was full of emotions. The house where he lives now is the former residence of the anti-Japanese national hero Le Yiqin. As Le Yiqin's nephew, Le Jingang said that he was a national hero and the pride of the Le family.

On December 3, 1937, more than 30 enemy fighters invaded Nanjing, and Le Yiqin and his comrades took off to meet the enemy. Le Yiqin's plane water tank and fuel tank were all shot, and the plane fell down in smoke, and he had to jump out of the landline. In order not to be the target of the enemy's gun, he jumped out without pulling the parachute, fell in a straight line, and when he was about to open the parachute, his body had landed on the ground and he died heroically, at the age of 23.

According to Yu Huairong, former director of the Lushan County CPPCC Cultural and Historical Committee, after Le Yiqin's sacrifice, his pension was sent back to the Lushan Le family, and the Le family invested in the construction of Baiying School and built the first primary school in Lushan.

Rao Guohua

The personal guard raised his grandson

After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression in 1937, Rao Guohua of his hometown of Ziyang Yanjiang led his troops out of Sichuan to fight against the Japanese Kou, and fought bravely in Guangde, Anhui Province, repeatedly defeating the enemy, and still fighting in bloody battles when the lone army held its position, and unfortunately was shot and died heroically.

"My father is the pride of our family, and the whole family is proud of him." Rao Guohua's daughter, Rao Yuxiu, is in her 80s and currently lives in Chengdu. "The only photograph of my father that I have left so far is a remake of me from the archives." Rao Yuxiu said that after his father's sacrifice, his personal bodyguard Gu Yuanxing also came to Ziyang with his father's coffin and has been living in their home. Until 1965, when Gu Yuanxing died at the age of 66, he never married.

Rao Guohua's grandson, Gu Qingwei, also known as Rao Qingwei, is 68 years old and lives in Ziyang. Gu Qingwei said that the reason why he used Gu Qingwei's name was because he was raised by Gu Yuanxing, his grandfather's personal guard. "He was my adoptive father, and I lived with him in 1950 when I was 4 years old."

Wu Kun

The martyrs were left with only one group photo

In September 1939, the "Jiang Kang" returned to Jiangyin and was harassed by the "Loyal National Salvation Army", and Wu Kun was unfortunately shot in the head by the enemy and died at the age of 29. Liu Chengquan, director of the Chongqing Wanzhou Revolutionary Martyrs Cemetery, told the Chengdu Business Daily reporter that because he went out to participate in the revolution very early, coupled with the early death of his parents, his two brothers unfortunately died prematurely, and there was no descendant, and the information left by martyr Wu Kun was extremely limited. "In 2001, we sent a special person to Jiangyin to collect information on the martyrs, and the most valuable thing was to find a group photo left by the martyrs before they died."

Chen Shaotang

A son and a daughter have been heard from

Robbing rich merchants, robbing local tycoons, and then joining the army, this is Chen Shaotang's life. Yesterday, a reporter from Chengdu Business Daily searched for Chen Shaotang's descendants in Wangjia Town, where Chen Shaotang's hometown is located, but there was no news. According to You Yonghong, secretary of the Party Committee of Wangjia Town, Chen Shaotang has a son and a daughter, who came back in the 1990s, and has not been heard from since, at present, there are no relatives in his hometown who are related to Chen Shaotang, but he has always been an anti-Japanese hero in the hearts of the locals.
