According to the Memorial Hall of the Compatriots Killed in Nanjing, the Japanese Army Invaded China.
Chen Guixiang, a survivor of Nanjing, died on March 5.
He was 99 years old.
Grandma's *** to protect me
Chen Guixiang's parents died when she was young, and her grandmother raised her with hard work, and it was her grandmother who fought her own life to save her from the Japanese soldiers.
One day when the Japanese soldiers came, I ran and shouted, 'Grandma, the Japanese are going to arrest me!' I hid in the latrine and the Japanese soldier followed me, and he grabbed me and grabbed me by the hair. Grandma came after me, and I cried and shouted, 'Grandma save me!' The Japanese soldiers slapped me twice and beat me in the ears. ”
Chen Guixiang's grandmother knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, "The Japanese soldier hit her grandmother with the butt of her gun, and with a bang, she killed her grandmother." Every time she remembered this, her eyes turned red.
Later, the Japanese soldiers dragged Chen Guixiang to the house, and when they crossed the threshold, the Japanese soldiers tripped up, and Chen Guixiang ran away. She fled to the river, fell headlong on the beach, and was rescued by an old man who was ferrying. In this way, Chen Guixiang escaped death.
Strive to become literate and become the village party secretary.
Like countless families in Nanjing, Chen Guixiang's fate was completely changed, but this painful experience did not knock her down, but used it to motivate herself to maintain a positive attitude towards life and learn to be self-reliant.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, a school was set up in the village, and she was eager for knowledge, and she carried her son to school and worked hard to read and write. She was considered a cultural person in the village at that time, and was elected by everyone as the women's director, and later became the village party secretary.
He traveled to Japan to participate in the testimony rally.
The old man Chen Guixiang participated in testimony rallies many times before his death, and recounted that tragic experience over and over again. In 2011, she went to Hiroshima, Japan, to share her personal experience with the Japanese people.
She said she wanted to tell the Japanese people what crimes their ancestors had committed. "My testimony is left behind, which can prove that I myself have been so ** by the invading Japanese army. ”
In 2011, Chen Guixiang went to Japan to participate in a testimony rally.
Chen Guixiang was very concerned about her grandmother who protected her to the death, and she said emotionally: "I participated in the Nanjing ** testimony activities again and again, for Nanjing, and for my grandmother." ”
Teach your children to defend their families and country.
It is precisely because of such a painful experience that the old man Chen Guixiang knows more about the importance of a strong motherland, and she attaches great importance to the education of her children and teaches them to protect their families and defend the country.
