Tomb-Sweeping Day is a day to remember the lost relatives. When we are thinking of our deceased ancestors, we must not forget those Republic martyrs who are sleeping. Some of them left no tombstones, some left no bones, and some even left no names. They exchanged their most precious lives for the rebirth of the Republic. Remembering them is the deepest and richest interpretation of the feelings of home and country. It is the truest memory and comfort for them to keep moving forward in the footsteps of heroes and heroes.
Revolutionary heroism is a national honor and national wealth. People’s heroes are supreme praise for revolutionary martyrs, and at the same time, they tell us that the heroic feats of the revolution are not just individual honors, but their achievements for a long time have already turned into the powerful spiritual wealth of the Chinese nation and become the indomitable, fearless and courageous national soul of Chinese sons and daughters. The history of the Communist Party of China (CPC), the history of the People’s Liberation Army of China, is the history of countless revolutionary martyrs who advance wave after wave and shed blood and sweat. "It doesn’t matter if you behead, as long as the doctrine is true." "For the new China, go!" "Do earth-shattering things and be an anonymous person" … … These inspiring words and inspiring lofty sentiments have long been handed down from generation to generation as the magic weapon for the people of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and China to overcome all kinds of difficulties and obstacles and win new victories. If you love this country and this nation, you should respect heroes and martyrs. On the contrary, the lack of awe of revolutionary heroes, downplaying or even questioning the great achievements of British model figures are manifestations of historical nihilism, and we will forget "where we came from and where we are going." We should always remember the history of the struggle of revolutionary heroes, integrate the great spirit of people’s heroes into the four beams and eight pillars of the Republic building, and support the great cause of national rejuvenation.
Heroes come forth in large numbers to make the country rich, the country prosperous and the people safe. Times make heroes, and heroes advance the times. The Chinese nation is a nation that bears hardships and stands hard work, is a nation that respects morality and defends integrity, is a nation that is brave and tenacious, and is also a nation that is full of heroes. In the revolutionary war years, those heroes in our party who cherished ideals and sacrificed their lives for righteousness achieved the great cause of liberation with iron-like will. During the period of socialist construction, there have also emerged many people’s heroes who put aside their personal interests and wrote their loyalty with their lives. On the new journey of building a modern socialist country, we still need a large number of advanced models and exemplary figures with lofty ideals, firm beliefs, courage to shoulder heavy burdens and sacrifice themselves to make contributions to the party and the people in their respective posts. All walks of life and all fronts should vigorously carry forward the heroic spirit, cultivate heroes, vigorously advocate a good atmosphere with collectivism and revolutionary heroism as the main content, and play the clarion call for the new era and new journey.
Pass on the red genes of revolutionary heroes from generation to generation. The country has a future, the nation has hope, and we cannot lack spiritual strength. Revolutionary heroes are not only the heroes of the Republic, but also the national soul they exchanged with blood and life is an inexhaustible source of strength to unite strength, inspire morale, overcome difficulties and move from victory to victory. The outstanding moral character and lofty realm of these heroes, such as loyalty to the party, love for the people, righteously, death-like, pleasure in suffering and pride in dedication, are our precious red genes. As latecomers, it is the best consolation for heroes, the best memorial and remembrance for us to pass on and continue these genes. Let the revolutionary heroic spirit last forever, and we will be invincible and invincible. (Author: Gao Hui)
