[Explanation] A few days ago, in front of a joint tomb of 45 unnamed Red Army martyrs on the back ridge of the Forbidden Mountain in Shangfeng Village, Jiahu Township, Wanzai County, Yichun City, Jiangxi Province, representatives of the people from Hunan and Jiangxi provinces spontaneously came to offer sacrifices to the martyrs. Scan, and before that, three generations of villagers Ling Duanqing's family had guarded this joint tomb for 70 years.

  In April 1933, the CCP’s Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee was besieged by the enemy. At the Hong San Hospital where the wounded were treated, Ling Gaoshou, who was only 8 years old at the time, witnessed the wounded moaning in pain because of no medicine. With the villagers, 45 Red Army martyrs were buried and buried in Caoshang Village, Wanzai, Jiangxi.

  Beginning in 1950, Ling Gaoshou made a decision when he passed by the Red Army tomb that was unswept. No matter what his living conditions, he would come here to clean the weeds and take care of the martyrs’ cemetery. It was Ling Gaoshou’s son’s turn. When Ling Duanqing was guarding, 70 years had passed.

  It was liberated in 1950, and my father had grown up. At that time, he used shovel and sickle to weed and drain the tomb of the Red Army martyrs. (He said) In the future, I will grow old, and I will still have a son, and my son will still have a grandson.

  This ring was taken by the Red Army and given to my father-in-law. He said it was a treasure and passed on from generation to generation.

  Squad leader Xu hurt his eyes at that time. My father-in-law took an egg and wiped his eyes, and then grabbed stone frogs and loach to eat. Squad leader Xu gave this ring to my father-in-law.

  [Explanation] After the Red Army surnamed Xu died, local villagers buried him together with other unknown martyrs. In order to obtain the real name of the Red Army surnamed Xu, the Xu family members collected clues extensively in Liuyang and Pingjiang, Hunan to help find the family or descendants of the Red Army surnamed Xu. Although the exact identity information has not yet been found, the red spirit will eventually be passed on from generation to generation.
