This is a shocking wedding, and the name of the protagonist is worth engraving in each of our hearts: February 6th, 1928, * * * party member Zhou Wenyong and Chen Tiejun got married.
Why did they get married in the execution ground? Everything has to start with the Guangzhou Uprising.
1927 65438+February 1 1, Guangzhou uprising failed. Zhou Wenyong led some uprising troops to fight to the death with the enemy. It was not until the ammunition was exhausted that he fought his way out, broke through Guangzhou and fled to Hong Kong.
In order to rebuild the Party's organs and organizations, Zhou Wenyong and Chen Tiejun returned to Guangzhou to continue their underground struggle. Sometimes they pretend to be wealthy businessmen, and sometimes they pretend to be coolies, looking for the lost party member.
Two people in the revolutionary struggle with * * * produced love, but for the revolutionary cause, this kind of feeling can only be deeply buried in the bottom of my heart.
Unfortunately, Zhou Wenyong and Chen Tiejun were arrested at the same time on1October 27th, 1928.
The enemy subjected them to all kinds of inhuman torture, such as watering pepper, sitting on a tiger stool and nailing their fingers with bamboo sticks. Their unyielding, helpless and angry enemy decided to sentence them to death.
In his cell, Zhou Wenyong wrote a heroic poem on the wall: "The head can be broken and the limbs can be broken, but the revolutionary spirit cannot be destroyed. The head of a strong man is a party fall, and the body of a brave man is a group crack. "
The two men were as cool as a cucumber when the reactionaries sentenced them to death. When the reactionaries asked Zhou Wenyong what he wanted, he only offered to take a photo with Chen Tiejun.
So under the bars, they took a photo, standing side by side, dying.
Zhou Wenyong (left) 1905 was born in a poor teacher's family in Kaiping, Guangdong, and 1925 joined the China * * * production party.
(right), formerly known as Chen, from Foshan, Guangdong, 1904. In order to show that Tiexin followed the * * * production party, he changed his name to Tiejun and joined the China * * * production party on April 1926.
That was February 6th, 1928. In the afternoon of Lantern Festival, the sky is gloomy and the cold wind is howling.
Zhou Wenyong and Chen Tiejun were taken to the execution ground. They shouted slogans, sang "The Internationale" and delivered speeches to people along the way. Countless people followed them.
On the execution ground, they decided to make the love buried in their hearts public.
Chen Tiejun said to them:
"Comrade Zhou Wenyong and I pretended to be husband and wife and worked together for several months. We cooperated well and established deep feelings. But because we are focused on our work, we have no time to talk about personal feelings. "
She shouted to people:
"Now, we are going to get married. Let the gunfire of the Kuomintang executioner become a salute to our marriage! "
Before the execution, Zhou Wenyong "put a scarf around his wife's neck (Chen Tiejun) and shook hands with him; His wife put a rope around her neck so that she couldn't tie it. "
After that, the two men died peacefully in the Honghuagang execution ground in Guangzhou, and many people hid their faces and wept.
The day after their death, the photo of them standing behind bars was published in the newspaper with the caption: "We used to work together and never got married, and now we announce a wedding."
There are no flowers and diamond rings, only bonfires and smoke. They gave their precious lives for the happiness of the people. We should not forget them, but also let more people remember them.
