Youth in war fire

In 1930, Zhao Deqin was born in a small village in Caozhuang Town, Xingcheng City, Huludao City, Liaoning Province. His father died early when he was 6 years old, and his mother took a son and two daughters. In 1944, the Japanese invaders were forced to grab the labor in the local area. In order to prevent the only male in the family, Ding was arrested, the family fled to Xuetian Township, Tomada County, Xing'an Meng County, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Less than a year since then, the mother died of overwork.

"The family is too poor. My brother is going to find a in -laws for me, at least there can be a full meal." Zhao Deqin said that the underlying women in the old society seemed to have no other way out. But in May 1946, the army led by the Communist Party came here, turning the fate of this farm girl.

Memorial and other items preserved by Zhao Deqin.

At that time, the troops set up a recruitment office in the village to promote the revolutionary truth to the villagers and encourage young people to join the army. There is a short -haired Eighth Route Army Female Warrior, who has a literary word and a good -looking posture, which impresses Zhao Deqin. She longed for such a new woman and took the initiative to sign up to participate in the Eighth Route Army. After the outbreak of the Liberation War in June of the same year, the army of the Liberation Zone was renamed the People's Liberation Army by the Eighth Route Army, the New Fourth Army, and the Northeast Democratic Army.

"I absolutely obey the arrangement. Where I let me go, I will go." After participating in the army, Zhao Deqin first learned nursing knowledge in the Health Division of the Liaoxi Military Region, and then was served in the Fourth -Division of the Liaoxi Military Region. Factory work. In January 1949, she was transferred to the 44th Army Health Department of the PLA as a nurse. In March of the same year, she went south with the army from Tianjin to the Yangtze River in the Jiujiang area of ​​Jiangxi.

How many times, she and his comrades in the medical office rushed to the enemy's guns and rains, passed through the rugged mountain road, and lifted the burden and savior. Although it was not directly connected with the enemy's short soldiers, it would encounter the attack of the enemy's artillery at any time. "Most of the soldiers who were lifted from the battlefield were blurred flesh and blood, lacking arms and legs ..." The smoke filled the years, making Zhao Deqin unforgettable. Because of the influence of the war, her left ear was deaf.

The belief of the iron is like iron

In August 1949, after the organization, Zhao Deqin and Peng Huaqing became revolutionary.

Peng Huaqing is a native of Guchenggang Village, Zhakou Township, Shexian County. According to historical records, from September 1926, He Long led the 30,000 North Expedition Army Puzhou Oath, and in October 1935, He Long led the Red Army to leaving the county for ten years, and about 15,000 children of the counties followed He Long from the military revolution. As one of them, Peng Huaqing, who was 18 years old, participated in the Red Army in his hometown in 1935 and followed the Army Long March.

Zhao Deqin's family took a group photo in Guangzhou.

Zhao Deqin and her husband were born in poor farmers. They have experienced the oppression and exploitation of the old society, and have witnessed the burning and looting of the invaders. In the years, they have witnessed the spirit of the Communists who have established a profound and firm communist belief in seeking the spirit of the nation's independence, the liberation of the people, and the hardships of the people.

Zhao Deqin studied at the former Guangzhou Workers and Peasant Cadre Culture Culture School.

In 1950, due to physical reasons, Zhao Deqin chose to work from the army to work at the former Guangzhou Enterprise Bureau Zhengtai Company. She admits that although she has participated in the revolutionary work very early, she has always had the courage to apply for the party because of her low cultural level and has always had inferiority. After transferring to the local area, she entered the former Guangzhou Workers and Peasant Cadres Culture Culture Culture School and the former Guangzhou Municipal Cadre Cadre Cultural School. She enhanced herself in terms of cultural knowledge and political literacy. She finally entered the party in October 1956.

In the application for joining the party, she wrote: "I am willing to serve the people, be an honest serviceman, and be more willing to dedicate themselves to the end of the communist cause."

The family style passed down from generation to generation

In 1971, Peng Huaqing retired from the former subsidiary of the Guangzhou Materials Bureau. Because of his hometown, the couple returned to Changde, Hunan to settle with 4 children.

Zhao Deqin looked at the old photos.

Affected by his parents, the younger son Peng Peiyi determined to participate in the army. In March 1978, at the age of 19, he realized his dream. Like his father, he rushed to the barracks from Qixian. Peng Peishun, a 70 -year -old brother, still remembers the scene of sending his brother to the army for his parents.

In the troops, Peng Peiyi worked hard and performed well. He joined the Chinese Communist Youth League the following year; in February of the same year, he sacrificed heroically in the border self -defense counterattack. In April, the troops recovered the third -class merit once and awarded the title of martyr. They are now buried in the Cemetery of Pingxiang Martyrs in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.

Zhao Deqin retrieved his son's relics with tears, a leather wallet with bullet printing, two and a half of the towel ... she was carefully collected and preserved so far.For more than 40 years, the young people in black and white photos are still heroic, but the mother is already white hair.The old man rubbed a piece of soap -sized soap, as if there was the remaining temperature of the young son.Photos of martyr Peng Peiyi.

"Dedicated youth and dedication, and presented the descendants for life." This is the vow of the revolutionary predecessors, and it is also the most authentic portrayal of the old warrior Zhao Deqin in his life.

At any time, Zhao Deqin always requires himself to strictly demand himself, loves his career, lives frugality, and uses the revolutionary spirit to teach his children and grandchildren with revolutionary spirit.She often says: "Today's days are the result of countless old party members struggling. We must feel the party, follow the party, and be useful to the society."
