Early April.

On the eve of the Qingming Festival.

Jiangcheng No. 26 Primary School began to actively organize students to carry out activities to pay tribute to the martyrs' cemetery.

The purpose of holding such meaningful activities on a regular basis is to encourage students to inherit and carry forward the revolutionary traditions of their revolutionary forefathers who endured hardships, worked hard, and were firm and optimistic.

Deepen the education of "gratitude" and revolutionary traditions, strengthen the education of patriotism, and enhance the students' sense of historical responsibility and mission.

Tomb sweeping on the Qingming Festival, this kind of thing Li Zhongxin has been there many times from elementary school to middle school to high school, but this is the first time he has participated in the tomb sweeping activity in the martyr's cemetery after being reborn.

Regarding the matter of sweeping the tombs of martyrs before the Qingming Festival, Li Zhongxin strongly agreed. Without these martyrs who are buried underground, and without so many martyrs who have sacrificed their lives for the country, there would be no good life today.

At this time, going to sweep the tomb is different from going to the tomb in later generations, all rely on the foot, that is, walking, and the school teacher is on both sides of the students, watching over these students, all the way from the school to the martyrs' cemetery.

Jiangcheng Revolutionary Martyrs Memorial Tower, located in the West Park of Xilin Park in Jiangcheng City, the tower was built on July 1, 1949, and the ground building is organized by three parts: the tomb, the tower body and the tower stop.

The base of the tower is the type of Limi, the shape is square and four stacks, the east and west are 7 meters long, the high north is 6 meters long, and the height is 1.26 meters. The body of the tower is a quadrangular pyramid body, and the top is a platform type.

The lower part of the tower has the shape of a tank and a shell. The base of the tower is 2 meters high, 1.5 meters long from east to west, and 1 meter wide from north to south.

The tower is 30 meters high. There are inscriptions on the four walls of the tower, and the south wall is engraved with the full name of "Martyrs Memorial Tower". Under the tower inscription is the tower word. The north wall is also engraved with an inscription, which is a dedication to the former Songjiang Provincial Government. The upper part of the east wall is inscribed: "Make great contributions to the country and the people, and make the same contribution as the sun and the moon." The inscription on the west wall reads: "Fighting for the revolution and dying, although the death is still glorious." ”

Jiangcheng No. 26 Primary School is about five kilometers away from Jiangcheng Martyrs Cemetery, because they are all primary school students, they also need to cross the road under the care of teachers, and it is relatively slow to walk, from Jiangcheng No. 26 Primary School, it takes almost an hour to walk to the Martyrs' Cemetery.

Moreover, when you go to the martyr's cemetery to sweep the tomb, there are many ceremonies, that is, basically the morning will be spent in the martyr's cemetery.

Every year, the school basically follows the tradition of sweeping the graves of martyrs, with students in grades three and four sweeping the graves in the morning and classes in the afternoon, and students in grades five and six in the morning and sweeping the tombs in the afternoon.

After arriving at the martyrs' cemetery, Zhang Ziyu, the new acting director of the school, began to preside over the Qingming Festival sacrifice and sweeping ceremony.

She stood there and read according to the script: "The green mountains are silent, and the pine waves are bursting. Today, in the name of the revolution, we are here to recall the martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the country; We should comfort the souls of the heroes with the reality of the rapid development of modernization. All the Young Pioneers are requested to take off their hats and stand solemnly, and salute the martyrs with a solemn and respectful attitude.

After Zhang Ziyu finished saluting, he silently calculated the time, and after about ten seconds passed, Zhang Ziyu's voice was slightly raised, "For the birth of New China and the happiness of the next generation, the revolutionary martyrs fought bloodily, were not afraid of sacrifice, and dyed our red flag with blood. Please accept our sincere gratitude. Below, the glorious Young Pioneers laid wreaths for the martyrs. ”

After laying the wreath, the next thing was a minute of silence, and then Zhang Ziyu introduced the situation of the martyrs' cemetery in a free manner, and then Li Zhongxin went up to give a speech.

Li Zhongxin walked in front of the third- and fourth-grade students, quickly raised his right hand above his head, first gave a very solemn Young Pioneer salute, and then stood in front of these students generously.

Li Zhongxin did not take out the speech like Director Zhang Ziyu, but stood there very casually, and said directly in a solemn and low voice: "Today, we come here with the idea of remembering the spirit of the martyrs, come to the place where countless heroes are buried, and the monument to the revolutionary martyrs standing in front of us is silently pouring out the glorious life of our heroes. ”

Li Zhongxin's solemn and deep voice was slightly raised, and he said solemnly: "Get up, people who don't want to be slaves, in the loud and passionate military songs, the red notes that dance, they are our immortal heroes."

In those unbearable years, when the people were subjected to external and internal oppression and exploitation every day, our heroes stood up at this time. They endured all the hardships they had endured, and in order to liberate China, liberate the people, and let the people live in a peaceful and free environment, they chose the solemn and great cause of the revolution, and through their unremitting efforts, we have today's happy life. The people's heroes gave up their own happiness, but in exchange for the happiness of more people. ”

Li Zhongxin's voice suddenly rose high at this time: "It is them, it is they who have built a smooth road for our happy life today with their fallen bodies, it is them, it is they who have activated the mountains and rivers that feed us with their blood, it is they who have raised the green trees and green mountains of the land of China with their iron bones!"

After the high-pitched voice stopped, Li Zhongxin's eyes swept over the students below who were already listening stupidly, his voice gradually calmed down, and his voice was even lowered: "Standing in front of these great martyrs, do we feel insignificant or even ashamed in stark contrast to them? No matter how we feel, we should be aware that we need to reflect and learn. Let's look at ourselves now, after we talked back to our parents, in addition to feeling a moment of happiness, did we think of how our parents felt at the moment? Students, we need to think more about our heroes, think about how they fought hard to capture one position after another in such a difficult environment, and think about how they were so calm and resolute when the enemy coerced and lured. They are tenacious, persevering, looking at death as home, and serving the country loyally. They will be heroic and martyred, and this is what we should learn, and we have these fearless patriotic spirits. Why can't we find our direction and will? With these heroic qualities of arduous struggle, why should we worry that the country cannot become rich and strong, and the nation cannot prosper?

The martyrs' firm faith, persistent pursuit, and national spirit of shedding blood for the truth and dedicating themselves to the cause of the liberation of the motherland inspire us to open up a better future.

They have dyed the color of the national flag red with their own blood, they have built the Great Wall with their bodies, what do we need to do? What do we need to do? That is to inherit their legacy and build New China into a stronger, more prosperous, and more prosperous China. ”

Li Zhongxin's speech was very successful, at least all the students in the third and fourth grades were shocked, they didn't care how Li Zhongxin came up with such a speech, they just knew that in Jiangcheng No. 26 Primary School, Li Zhongxin was definitely a great scholar.

In this part of the speech of the martyrs of the Qingming Festival, Li Zhongxin has his thoughts, many times it is the same, people have a sense of awe, he used his tone and tone to say this speech to these students, even if it is good to let them remember a little, most of the following students, most of them have a good relationship with Li Zhongxin in later generations, and he has the idea of wanting to help these students.

In many cases, helping people is not only financial support, but also spiritual wealth support, and many times, Li Zhongxin has the idea of wanting to give these students more inspiration.

Everyone has their own life, and he doesn't want to interfere too much in the growth process of others on the surface, so he can only rely on his slow influence.
