Pursuing the imprint of the Sino-Japanese War in Shanghai

Pursuing the imprint of the Sino-Japanese War in Shanghai

"1In August, 937, the Japanese invaders landed from Ogawa Sand, Luo Jing. I was only born two months ago. It was my uncle who picked me out of the basket and saved my life, so I am also a survivor of the Japanese butcher's knife. " The 83-year-old Shen calmly told the past in the smoke, and his face was covered with ravines.

This is a history that cannot be forgotten. The main battlefields of 1932' s "January 28th" and 1937' s "August 13th" are in Baoshan, Shanghai. In Shanghai Songhu Anti-Japanese War Memorial Park, a bloody page was recorded on a big stone: "1August 937 13, the Japanese invaders attacked Shanghai, and our patriotic soldiers bravely resisted. From September/KLOC-0 to 7, Yao Ziqing Battalion, the garrison of Baoshan County, repeatedly resisted the Japanese onslaught, and the whole battalion died heroically. Yao Ziqing was 29 years old. "

Baoshan is the gateway to Shanghai, located at the mouth of the Yangtze River, with flat terrain and connecting with beijing-shanghai railway. It is the only way for the port, so it has become a battleground for military strategists. Yao Ziqing, then commander of the National Revolutionary Army, led 600 troops. Facing the attack of 2500 Japanese troops with tanks, planes and naval guns, he fought bloody battles to defend Baoshan. The Songhu Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall was built on the site of that year's battle, and it was also the place where "Yao Ziqing Camp" died heroically.

As the curator of Shanghai Songhu Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall and Shanghai Liberation Memorial Hall, Tang Lei is familiar with this period of history: "This is a major battle in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. The battle won space with time, laid the foundation for a lasting war of resistance and preserved strength. After three months of full preparation, the war bought time for the inward relocation of industries, the transfer of materials, equipment and enterprises in Shanghai and the coastal areas of East China, which greatly stimulated the patriotic enthusiasm and confidence of the broad masses of people in resisting Japan and saving the country. "

Tang Lei told reporters that it is also the mission of Shanghai Songhu Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall to let the audience know the glorious course of China from a professional perspective. The reporter saw that the Shanghai Songhu Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall is advancing the implementation of the second phase expansion project. On the east side of the old museum, the newly-built War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression Memorial Hall has entered the exhibition stage. Shout, blood and tears, hard soil, fortress, roar, alliance and triumph are divided into seven parts. Through a large number of historical materials, cultural relics, pictures and artistic creations, supplemented by immersive experience and scene interpretation, a scene space will be constructed, which will fully reflect the whole process of the history of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression in Shanghai from 65438 to 2004 and condense the days of our lives in Shanghai.

"Shanghai's special position in modern China and its special situation during the Anti-Japanese War determined that it played an irreplaceable role in the anti-Japanese war in the enemy-occupied areas led by the party, and its typical significance cannot be ignored." Han Hongquan, a professor at the School of Politics of National Defense University, said. The reporter learned that in recent years, Shanghai Songhu Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall has been digging deep into red education resources. As one of the first 15 recommended learning and education venues in Shanghai, the Songhu Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall innovatively launched the "Four History" activity in May this year, which consists of a micro-course of "Visiting Exhibition Hall+Bonfire Lecture Hall" and a specially customized course for experts. In addition to position teaching, a "mobile classroom" was also launched, and lecturers sent out "micro-lessons" to continuously expand the radiation coverage of the "Four History" lectures.

On this basis, Shanghai Songhu Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall integrates the resource advantages of red venues and patriotic education bases within its jurisdiction, and enriches the red study tour route of "Four History" education by combining the excavation and utilization of anti-Japanese war memorial facilities, and adopts various forms such as pavilion explanation, scenic spot search, community lectures, and live webcasts to create a brand of "Four History" red culture propaganda that "sees cultural relics", "listens to historical facts" and "feels the spirit".

In the Songhu Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall, there are photo walls on both sides to shoot black and white close-ups of the heads of anti-Japanese war veterans. "Veterans are a valuable asset." Tang Lei told reporters that during the eight years from 2005 to 20 12, Shanghai Songhu Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall interviewed more than 60 anti-Japanese war veterans, sorted out the interview materials and published three volumes of Oral Songhu Anti-Japanese War. Interview video as a collection material, and now these veterans have passed away.

"One piece of old things makes the heroic image of sentient beings and righteousness more flesh and blood. This way of making red cultural relics' speak' has made history more deeply rooted in people's hearts. " There is a message from the audience. Heyong, Jinyuan Road, Baziqiao, Orphan Barracks, Panyu Road Hospital for the Disabled, Tiantong 'an, Zaobang Jizi Bridge, Zhanghuabang, Gongda Cotton Mill, Huishan Wharf ... In this city, the imprint of war is still discernible, and that spirit has been deeply injected into the roots of this city.
