I often think about my life and die for the urgency of my country.

Patriotic general Ji Hongchang.
1895, a boy named Hongchang was born in the backyard of a small teahouse named Ji in Lutan Town, Fugou County, Henan Province. For Ji Junting, Hong Chang's father, it is a happy event to add people's mouths, but there is another mouth to eat. Ji Hongchang managed to make it to the age of 18, and it was Feng Yuxiang who recruited soldiers in Henan, so he signed up for the army and began his life-long military career.
Ji Hongchang regarded Yue Fei and Wen Tianxiang as heroes since childhood, so he was sincere, hardworking and brave, and was known as "Ji Dan", while the troops he led were known as "Iron Army". 1930, when Ji Hongchang was 35 years old, he was promoted to commander-in-chief of the 22nd Route Army of the National Army. At that time, after the Northern Expedition, Japanese imperialism was eyeing China, but the Kuomintang tried its best to eliminate the * * * production party under the pretext of "external peace". At this point, Ji Hongchang was ordered to attack the Hubei, Henan and Anhui Soviet areas. He disguised himself as a tinker and entered the Soviet area. Seeing the real situation of the producer with his own eyes, he felt suddenly enlightened and set himself a goal: "If you make a mistake, pull your leg out!" So he is going to lead the uprising. Unexpectedly, Chiang Kai-shek got a tip-off, and soon relieved Ji Hongchang of his military power and deported him in the name of "inspection".
On the eve of Ji Hongchang's going abroad, 9 18 incident happened. Hearing this news, he "collapsed" and said with tears: "The national disaster is imminent, and all soldiers with conscience should swear to save the country!" Stick to staying at home and fight Japanese imperialism to the end. But Chiang Kai-shek was indifferent and forced him to go abroad. Ji Hongchang, full of grief and indignation, had to leave a poem on the wall of the hotel where he stayed in Shanghai, saying, "Only make Longcheng fly, don't teach Humadu to spend a shady mountain" to show his heart.
Patriotic Ji Hongchang suffered racial discrimination in the United States. He was told that if you say you are Japanese, you can be treated with courtesy. Ji Hongchang was furious and said, "You think China people are humiliated, but I think China people are glorious!" To this end, he made a wooden badge with the words "I'm from China!" written in English. "And wear it anytime, anywhere, in the face of those who look down on China, and challenge the racial discrimination in the United States with the self-esteem of the Chinese nation.
Ji Hongchang propagandized anti-Japanese everywhere abroad. At a press conference, someone asked him, "Japan has planes and cannons. Why did China resist Japan? " He patted his chest and replied angrily, "We have blood, the blood of 40 million people. The anger of China people has reached the extreme, and they all have the determination to "die rather than surrender". Swear to sacrifice everything and fight for survival! Fight for the truth! " Arriving in Havana, the capital of Cuba, coincided with the gathering of overseas Chinese there to commemorate the 65th anniversary of Sun Yat-sen's birth. He was invited to give an impassioned speech against Japan at the meeting. An overseas Chinese listened to many people's tears and said loudly, "General Ji, go back to China and rectify the army. We will definitely be your backing! " Ji Hongchang said excitedly: "I will live up to the wishes of my compatriots and swear to drive Japanese imperialism out of China!" Tears streaming down his face, he shouted: In the Mainland, besides serving as the director of China International Trust and Investment Company, he also allocated HK$ 4 billion at 1986 to build a power plant near Wuxi, Jiangsu. 1On May 2, 1992, Shenzhen Changhe Industrial Co., Ltd., a Sino-foreign joint venture, was jointly established with relevant state departments in Shenzhen. In August of the same year, it invested heavily in the construction of ports and docks at Shanghai Jinshan Container Terminal. "Down with Japanese imperialism! Give me back my rivers and mountains! " At this time, the overseas Chinese present were in tears and shouted: "Sacrifice everything and fight to the end!"
