On October 4, 1926, the fourth phase of the Whampoa Graduation Ceremony was held at Shahe Square in Shougouling, a suburb of Guangzhou. More than 10,000 guests came to the ceremony.
Two thousand trainees lined up in a square team, and they passed the reviewing stage in unison, reciting the four-stage student oath: " doesn't love money, don't steal a life. Unity of will, dear and sincere. Obey the will and set a foothold. Fight for doctrine, do for doctrine Sacrifice. Inherit the lives of martyrs and carry forward the spirit of Huangpu. In order to achieve the goal of the National Revolution and the completion of the world revolution. ”
Among the trainees are 19-year-old Lin Biao from Hubei, 28-year-old Mao Renfeng from Zhejiang, and 23-year-old Xi'an. Zhang Lingfu, 22-year-old Jiangsu Zhou Enshou, 21-year-old Cantonese Xie Jinyuan. After more than 20 years, these people either resisted the Japanese and sacrificed their lives for justice, or became rivals in civil war. Excluding the historical background of success and failure, these people have found their place on the wall of history.
was first known by Xie Jinyuan.
In Shanghai, Xie Jinyuan found happiness and was also martyred here.
In the winter of 1927, a couple held a wedding in Shanghai.
22-year-old Xie Jinyuan, who had just graduated from the Whampoa Military Academy for one year, was stationed near Shanghai and came here to attend the wedding of his classmates. The bride has a bridesmaid named Ling Weicheng, who is in her double ten years, she is fair and beautiful, and she speaks elegantly. The Guangdong youth and the Shanghai girl met and fell in love.
When he was young, Ling Weicheng
Ling Weicheng had a better family background. His grandfather and grandmother opened a noodle shop in Xujiahui, and the business situation was pretty good. The parents are diligent, kind and open-minded, and attach great importance to the education of girls, so Ling Weicheng and her sisters have received a complete modern education. Ling Weicheng studied music at Shanghai Wuben Girls' Middle School and Southeast Sports College successively. Playing the organ, violin and singing are all strong points.
and Xie Jinyuan, a farmer from Jiaoling, Guangdong, transferred to the Whampoa Military Academy without graduating from Guangdong University (now Sun Yat-sen University), and joined the Northern Expedition after graduation. Although she is also an educated young military officer, how could Ling Mu find such a son-in-law who is in danger at any time?
But the love of young people is often unstoppable by the elders.
In early May 1928, the Northern Expedition was stopped by Japanese troops in Jinan. As the commander of the Pioneer Battalion, Xie Jinyuan was seriously injured in the battle and was transferred to Hankou Hospital to recuperate. At this time, Ling Weicheng came to visit, and their feelings have since been sublimated.
In September 1929, Xie Jinyuan and Ling Weicheng got married in Hankou Dahua Hotel.
The first six phases of Whampoa Military Academy are called "Old Whampoa". Among them, the first and fourth phases are the most powerful, with countless stars emerging. Xie Jinyuan is the best in the four phases. He has a keen eye. As early as the beginning of 1936, he judged that a full-scale war of resistance was about to break out. In his diary, he also expected the Second World War to break out in full.
At that time, Xie Jinyuan served as the chief of staff of the brigade lieutenant colonel in the 262 brigade of the 88th Division of the National Revolutionary Army. In preparation to fight against Japanese aggression, troops were transferred from Sichuan to Wuxi. In order to fight the enemy with peace of mind, he escorted all his wife and children to his hometown in the remote Jiaoling, northern Guangdong.
Before leaving, Xie Jinyuan said to his wife: "When the final victory comes, I will personally greet your mother and your son to return to Shanghai."
will see each other forever.
In Jiaoling, Ling Weicheng alone has to take care of seven people. This girl who grew up in Shanghai had never been involved in farming since she was a child, but she quickly learned farming in the unfamiliar Jiaoling, Guangdong, and took care of a large family alone. It's just that the fair-skinned and tender eldest lady turned into a working woman with rough palms and black cheeks. This is a Shanghai girl who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside.

In 1937, the "August 13" Songhu Battle broke out. Xie Jinyuan was the chief of staff of the 262 brigade of the 88th Division of the Army, and participated in the battle of Zhabei Bazi Bridge. Later, he was attached to the 524 regiment and led his troops to station at Zhabei Railway Station, fighting fiercely with the Japanese army for more than two months.
There is a huge disparity in strength between the enemy and ourselves, Chiang Kai-shek ordered all troops to withdraw westward, leaving only a little force behind. One is to delay the advancement of the Japanese army, and the other is to show the international community China's resolute attitude in resisting Japan. The commander of the 88th Division and the Sun Yuanliang of Huangpu Phase I decided to leave only one reinforcement battalion to stick to the four-line warehouse, led by Xie Jinyuan.
Although the battalion has 800 personnel, after combat, only 400 people actually started. Xie Jinyuan told his subordinates: “This four-row warehouse is the tomb of more than 400 of us. We will all die here.”
After some consolidation, the warehouse has become a fortress.
When the Japanese army searched both sides of the four-row warehouse, it was suddenly hit by bullets from the Chinese army, killing and wounding.
made a fierce attack, but it didn't work. The Japanese used horns to surrender. But the Chinese army kept on fire and even destroyed the horn.
On October 29, under the cover of the tank, the Japanese attacked again and approached the four-row warehouse. At the critical moment of , Chen Shusheng, a death-killing member and deputy squad leader of the second company and the fourth squad, was strapped with grenades on his body, jumped and died with more than 10 Japanese soldiers.
Later, people discovered that the blood book written by Chen Shusheng on a white undershirt was left to his old mother in Dabashan, Sichuan: “Leaving one's life for righteousness, what the child wants!”
Shanghai was almost completely occupied at this time. The book "Faces of the Bloody Battle in Songhu" records the situation on the day when the Japanese army occupied Shanghai: inspected room by room, and if he suspected it, he was shot. Register the personnel of each household, and if there is any increase or decrease in the evening, all will be shot and killed. If the calluses on the man's hand match the shape of the gun, he is shot. The cage objects, young woman, looted all. The rest of the men, women and children, all stamped on the thighs with the word "Japan". Those who do not want to stamp, kill.
pessimism and despair enveloped the whole city.
But one day, when a Shanghai citizen went out early in the morning, he suddenly saw our army bullets on the roof of the four-line warehouse shooting Japanese invaders. People rushed to tell each other, one after another gathered to the south bank of Suzhou River, took off their hats to pay tribute, moved to tears.
They disregarded the stray bullets. Seeing that our army had wiped out the Japanese army, they clapped their hands and cheered and shouted. When they saw the enemy's sneak attack, they shouted loudly and used large blackboards to write and draw pictures to remind our army to prevent it. From morning to night, the crowds of spectators continued to flow, reaching tens of thousands of people.
The 14-year-old Boy Scout Army member Yang Huimin was worried about the lonely army, and took advantage of the night to ask for the supplies. After learning that the lone army needed a national flag, Yang Huimin wrapped a flag in his clothes on the 28th when the night was thick, and risked his life to sneak into the four-row warehouse.
At dawn on the 29th, on the top floor of the four-row warehouse, the flag was gradually raised, and more than 20 defenders solemnly raised their hands in salute.
At that time, there were Japanese plaster flags everywhere, with a few British flags interspersed with them. This blue sky and white sun flag was hunting and fluttering, especially eye-catching.
Seeing the flag rising, the people watching the battle across the river were cheering and thunderous, and the foreigners present were all moved. " all those who walked through the place took off their hats and bowed, paying tribute to the national flag and the loyal soldiers ."
Yang Huimin's feat of sending the flag was also spread all over the country and the world by Reuters.
Lin Qingxia, who played Yang Huimin in the Taiwanese film "The Eight Hundred Heroes", soon created a song titled "The Eight Hundred Heroes". More than 80 years later, listening to this song still makes people cry.
China will not die,
China will not die,
look at that national hero Xie head;
China will not die,
China will not die,
look at the eight hundred soldiers who stand alone in the East Battlefield.
song eight hundred heroes,

Our national flag is wafting and wafting in the encirclement...
-"Song Eight Hundred Heroes"
four-line defense war has inspired the Chinese people. Countless Chinese horrors sang "China will not die" and rushed to the Anti-Japanese Front. How many great men, after a few years, blood fertile China.
fought hard for four days and four nights. Eight hundred soldiers repelled more than ten attacks before and after tens of thousands of Japanese troops, killing more than 200 people and wounding countless enemies.
Eight hundred warriors guard the four-row
four-row warehouse defense battle, which was launched in front of the global media.
Citizens on the south bank of Suzhou River cheered for the soldiers, Yang Huimin sent the flag, Chen Shusheng sacrificed himself and bombed the Japanese soldiers and other wonderful scenes, making the world media extremely sympathetic to China.
The eight hundred heroes who died, won the propaganda war in front of the world.
Girl Scout Yang Huimin later participated in the World Youth Peace Conference and was summoned by Roosevelt and Hitler. The heroes of the Four Lines of Solitary Army were sought after and imitated by the people all over the country, and they had great appeal to the Chinese people's anti-Japanese enthusiasm.
In 1938, Hong Kong film merchants quickly made "Eight Hundred Heroes", which became the most classic propaganda film during the War of Resistance Against Japan. In 1975, the Kuomintang party-run "Central Film Corporation" filmed "Eight Hundred Heroes" starring Brigitte Lin and became Taiwan's most popular war blockbuster.
In the early morning of October 31, all eight hundred soldiers were ordered to evacuate and enter the concession.
But Chiang Kai-shek is afraid of Westerners, and Westerners are afraid of Japanese. The
concession authorities succumbed to the pressure of the Japanese army and violated their promise, disarming eight hundred soldiers and detaining them in a square inch. Shanghai citizens call it the "solitary army camp."
awe-inspiringly looked at the Japanese army like a rat generation of eight hundred strong men, just like this, they were caught.
Since New Year's Day in 1938, Xie Jinyuan began to write a diary, and has written nearly 500,000 words in more than three years. He wrote in his diary: "The lone army camp is almost the same as the'captive camp' in the concession. Freedom is restricted and life is very hard." However, Xie Jinyuan is still positive and optimistic, strictly governs the army, and insists on raising the national flag before morning exercises. ceremony.
The lone barracks stayed for 4 years. The so-called fighting for 4 days, alone for 4 years.
Some local people suggested that Xie Jinyuan sneak away from Shanghai, but he refused. Xie Jinyuan said, I will be ordered to retreat, since it is coming from the light, then I must leave with integrity.
At that time, Xie Jinyuan must have thought of Xu Guo.
Seeking benevolence and benevolence is enough, but the enemy's methods are too despicable.
In 1941, the Wang Jingwei regime bought four of Xie Jinyuan's men and stabbed Xie to death. People from all walks of life in Shanghai went to express their condolences. There were almost 300,000 people, crying, and the road was blocked.
Xie Jinyuan
At the end of the year, the Pacific War broke out. The Japanese army took over the public concession in Shanghai, and the Chinese lone army fell into the hands of the Japanese army. The lone army
was then escorted to the heavily guarded Yuepu Airport in Baoshan County, Shanghai for forced labor, and the 800 warriors became veritable prisoners.
Half a year later, the lone army was dismantled, some were sent to Wuhu, Hangzhou, and Nanjing for hard labor, and some were escorted to Papua New Guinea, thousands of miles away. Some people escaped and returned to the group, then went on an expedition to Burma, and then killed the Japanese invaders.
Eight hundred heroes, just dissolve.
In 2008, an Australian pilot stumbled upon the remains of the Pacific island country Papua New Guinea on a hillside near Rabaul while searching for World War II remnants.There are several tombstones engraved with Chinese and blue sky and white sun emblems.
Eight hundred foreign tombstones
The local Chinese found out that they were captured by the Japanese during World War II and then escorted to work as laborers. Among them, there were 800 Chinese soldiers who were tortured to death. The news of
was sent back to China, and 100,000 netizens signed a petition. The spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that it will be commemorated in a solemn and solemn manner. On the other side of the strait, we also try our best to cooperate. After
scattered overseas for decades, the remains of the hero finally returned to their hometown. If they know in the ground, they don't know if they can look down.

After Xie Jinyuan was martyred, the National Government gave a special pension of 50,000 yuan, and Ling Weicheng and Xie Jinyuan’s father each received 25,000 yuan. Ling Weicheng used the money to buy 3 acres of land and cultivated it by himself to support a family of eight.
Xie’s family has no uncles, no brothers, old parents-in-law, and the children are still waiting to be fed. After Xie Jinyuan's death, Ling Weicheng went to see the chairman of the committee, but got a reply: "During the War of Resistance against Japan, the country is difficult. After the victory of the War of Resistance, the country will take care of you!"
The 4 children went to Shanghai. walked on the road for two full months due to insufficient funds. They waited for the freewheeling in Shantou for a full month. However, as long as it was heard that it was the orphan of Head Xie along the way, the people were eager to help.
Ling Weicheng returned to Shanghai in 1946. It has been ten years since he left last time. She has changed from a Shanghai lady who likes to dancing to a country woman with calluses. The day after
arrived in Shanghai, Ling Weicheng posted a simple message in the newspaper that the widow of General Xie had returned to Shanghai. The next day, two or three lone soldiers came to the door and invited Ling Weicheng's family to live in a three-story building near Haining Road at No. 466 Wusong Road. The ground floor of this building was empty. The old regimental leader's family lived on the second floor. There were many small rooms on the third floor where lone soldiers lived.
She resolutely took up the unfinished responsibilities of her dead husband, ran around calling for help, and even went to Nanjing to find Song Meiling for help. After returning to Shanghai, he raised funds to set up the "Gujun Industrial Service Agency", which produced "Gujun Brand" towels, socks, soap and other daily necessities. The veterans who had a difficult life were settled, and some people had enough entanglement, and they bid farewell to their hometown with tears. There are also loyal and brave veterans who voluntarily stayed behind to guard the tomb and accompany the old head alone. Although
is the widow of Xie Jinyuan, Ling Weicheng has been threatened and harassed from time to time over the years. There are always some widows in their early 30s who have bad intentions and even threaten to be careful about the lives of their children if they do not agree. The family was frightened.
In 1949, when the Communist Party of China established its power, Ling Weicheng wrote a letter to Chen Yi, the mayor of Shanghai, reflecting the plight of life. The Shanghai Municipal Government issued a document: "Xie Jinyuan participated in the Anti-Japanese War and died for the country. His survivors should be taken care of. Building 1, Building No. 466, Wusong Road and a section of the cemetery, is still allocated to Ling Weicheng for residential use. General expenses may be reduced or exempted."
, Most of the lone soldiers returned to their hometown one after another, and said goodbye to her before leaving. She always gave them a sum of money for travel and settlement expenses. In the early 1960s, Guo Xing, a former lone soldier who lived in Baoshan, was too poor to open the pot and took his son to Ling Weicheng's home. Ling Weicheng gave them a small bag of rice, which she used to exchange money from Taiwanese aunt and uncle for foreign exchange coupons.
Ling Weicheng in his late years
Ling Weicheng first worked in the Lilong nursery, and then adjusted the clothing factory until his retirement in 1973. During the Cultural Revolution, she and her children were also shocked, but the family understood each other and finally survived.
On January 6, 1991, Ling Weicheng passed away at the age of 84. According to her wishes, the children buried their mother in the Soong Ching Ling Cemetery and lay in the tomb of Xie Jinyuan who had moved here.

When the Battle of Songhu broke out, Xie Jinyuan belonged to the 88th Division, the commander was Sun Yuanliang, was born in the first phase of Huangpu, and was born in the direct line of Chiang Kai-shek. He is good-looking and good at speaking.
Sun Yuanliang
Chiang Kai-shek likes to learn from Zeng Guofan, pays attention to appearance and conversation. There are many people he relies on, such as Zhang Lingfu and Sun Yuanliang.
Sun Yuanliang, known as the "parachutist", is not commendatory, it is to make fun of him only to escape. From the Northern Expedition, to the Anti-Japanese War, to the Civil War, Sun Yuanliang has a record of abandoning the army and fleeing. After arriving in Taiwan, he was abandoned by Jiang and was helpless in business. He actually lived more than a hundred years old.
Sun Yuanliang has 11 children, one of whom is Sun Xiangzhong, whose stage name is Qin Han. In 1975, Qin Han also played a role in the film "Eight Hundred Heroes" in Taiwan. Lin Qingxia, who was entangled with Qin and Han for half her life, played the role of the heroine Yang Huimin in the film.
Brigitte Lin and Qin Han
Xie Jinyuan starred by the famous Taiwanese movie star Ke Junxiong, and the famous "chivalrous girl" Xu Feng in the history of Taiwan film plays the role of Mrs. Xie Jinyuan.
The story of Lin Qingxia in Qin and Han Dynasty is well known to the world. And Xu Feng is little known. As an actress, she is known as Taiwan's No. 1 Chivalrous Girl and has won two Golden Horse Awards. In 1980, she became a producer after she died of filming. She had a vicious eye. Her investment in "Rolling Red Dust" allowed Brigitte Lin to win the film queen. Of course, her most proud movie, you must have seen "Farewell My Concubine".
Xu Feng
Like the chivalrous woman in the movie, Xu Feng also has the heroic spirit.
According to her mother's will, she married someone she doesn't love. When the other party used her name to do business and ran away with a huge debt, Xu Feng filmed the film to repay the debt.
Tang Junnian was also one of the creditors at the time and the largest creditor. Xu Feng happily told him, “I’m making a film every day to save money and pay off my debt. If you chase me too tightly and go to jail, it’s no good for everyone. I’ll definitely pay your debt, but you have to give me time. If you can do it, please trust me.”
Tang Jun was over thirty at the time and was not married. At first glance, this woman was courageous, strategic, responsible, courageous, attractive and temperamental, and she immediately moved her heart. Began to pursue her.
After they got married, they worked together in the mall. Tomson Group is also one of the first foreign companies to invest in Pudong. Today, many properties in Pudong belong to her family, including Tomson Yipin, the most well-known top mansion.
It’s just a pity that Tang Jun died of overwork when he was in his fifties, which dealt a heavy blow to Xu Feng. However, over the past ten years, Xu Feng has not only survived, he has also made Tomson's career bigger and bigger, and his two sons have also taught well. The youngest son is called Tang Jiacheng . Many girls are idiots with him, and even set up a support club, calling themselves "Tang Yuan."
Tang Jiacheng
There are many actresses who have played the chivalrous woman. For forty to fifty years, only Xu Feng has been dubbed the "chivalrous woman". Probably because Xu Feng is not only a kung fu heroine who helps the weak and the strong in the play, but she also values love and justice outside the play. Because of family reasons when she was a child, she took care of the feelings of others the most, and she rarely considered it.
Ling Weicheng and Xu Feng have different historical time and space, but they have a lot in common. Be trustworthy, righteous, soft on the outside and strong on the inside, even if your husband is not there, you will have to take on huge responsibilities.
Xie Jinyuan, Ling Weicheng and Xu Feng probably all have a "lonely brave". This quality has many people in China since ancient times. Think about Jing Ke assassinating King Qin, think about Tian Heng five hundred scholars, think about defending the Diaoyu City, think about Yangzhou Shi Kefa, and then go to the Four Elements Xie Jinyuan.
If there were no wars, Xie Jinyuan would be unknown in history. If there were no hardships, there would be no such thing as Ling Weicheng and Xu Feng, who are weak but brave enough to shoulder heavy responsibilities.
People in the world, no matter high or low, rich or poor, no matter the gold or stone, as long as they courageously undertake, when the great era comes, they can shine.
