Don't forget the history of blood and tears, carry forward my Chinese soul —— Thoughts on National Day

This year is the most unforgettable year. While the whole country is celebrating the 60th birthday of the motherland, we should not forget to remember the martyrs, relive the history of blood and tears 60 years ago and eulogize the Chinese soul.

We can't forget that on the night of September 0, 193 18, the Japanese kwantung army blew up the tracks of the Liutiaohu section of the South Manchuria Railway, falsely accused the China army of sabotage, shelled the Northeast Army station and captured Shenyang. From then on, the invasion of China began, and in less than half a year, all three northeastern provinces fell into the hands of the Japanese army.

We can't forget that1July 7, 937, the Japanese army conducted provocative military exercises near Lugou Bridge, forcibly searched the ancient city of Wanping on the pretext that a soldier was missing, and after being rejected by the China army, they shelled the ancient city of Wanping and Lugou Bridge, thus opening the prelude to the national war of resistance in China.

We can't forget that in February 1937, the Japanese army captured Nanjing and carried out the terrible Nanjing Massacre. More than 300,000 China compatriots died by the enemy's iron hoof and sword.

We can't forget that since 194 1, Japan has concentrated more than half of its troops to invade China, swept the anti-Japanese base areas behind enemy lines, implemented the barbaric "three-light policy" of burning, killing and looting, and even unleashed poison gas, carried out germ warfare, created no man's land and attempted to destroy the anti-Japanese base areas.

……

We can't forget that during the eight years of the Anti-Japanese War, the people of China made great sacrifices, with more than 35 million military and civilian casualties, more than 42 million homeless refugees and direct or indirect economic losses as high as $560 billion.

The smoke of 60 years has dispersed, but the national soul that is not afraid of violence, forgets one's life, is United as one and fights to the end will remain in our hearts forever.

We can't forget the historical lesson that we will be beaten and humiliated if we fall behind.

We can't forget that today's happiness is bought by countless martyrs with their lives.

We can't forget that at this stage, Japanese militaristic forces are still spreading, and its aggressive ambition towards China has not stopped.

Today, we stand on the threshold of the new century and look back at history, and then examine the war of resistance in a new time and space coordinate. Looking back at the past on the occasion of the motherland's 56th birthday is of unusual warning significance.

War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's victory ended the humiliating history of our country, and the people of China stood up from now on; At the same time, it has greatly changed the mental outlook of the Chinese nation and improved China's international status. Since the founding of New China more than half a century ago, under the leadership of the * * * production party, we are gradually moving towards prosperity, the ranking of global competitiveness has risen, science and technology education and national defense construction have taken off, the "two bombs" have exploded successfully, satellites have been launched, 10,000-ton ships and nuclear submarines have been launched, the "Galaxy" computer has been operated, and manned space flight has been successful .. In short, China's strength is increasing day by day. However, we cannot be satisfied. Compared with the most advanced countries in the world, we still have a big gap. Therefore, we must catch up, concentrate on construction and concentrate on development. Let's join hands, never forget the history of blood and tears, carry forward my Chinese soul and work together for the rapid development of the Chinese nation. Let's wish the motherland peace, health, happiness and happiness forever.
