这些抗日英雄们,让我们永远怀念



最近看到方正县为开拓团立碑的报道。就感觉到某些中国官员集体无信仰到了令人堪忧的地步。尤其是方正县的官员们,"高级知识分子"们,连起码的尊严都不要了,居然在中国人流血牺牲的土地上为日本鬼子立碑。

现在各地会有报道,为了经济利益遗忘历史,不肯为抗日英雄们留下一块墓碑,一块墓地,一个纪念馆。

我时常想起我心目中的抗日英雄,比如赵一曼,赵尚志,杨靖宇。我在想在东北那么严寒的天气(零下40度)里,在已经成为"满洲国"的土地(失去群众基础)上,他们如何坚持下来的。

特别是赵一曼,我会想起她受到的酷刑,是什么样的信仰让她在那样严酷的刑罚下坚持。现在看电影,如风声,看到酷刑画面,觉得非常非常可怕,会怀疑事实上真的会有这样的酷刑吗,可是,看到解密的日本档案对赵一曼所受酷刑的描述,我直觉心在滴血,那要比电视上演的可怕百倍,惨烈百倍。我在想,如果是我的话,我会怎么办,可能早就选择自杀了。

早就听说过杨靖宇的故事。最近看雅虎画报,才知道他是被出卖的。

雅虎画报上是这样描述当时的情景的,

1940年2月22日,弹尽粮绝,只身一人的东北抗联第一路军总司令杨靖宇将军在辽宁省濛江县(现靖宇县)保安村以西五里的山路上,拦住四个进山砍柴的中国人,与其中一个叫赵延喜谈了话,请他到山下给自己买双棉鞋和一些吃的。

赵延喜回到村子里,迎面碰上了日本特务李正新(也是个中国人),他就害怕了,跟李正新说了杨靖宇的消息。李正新马上带他到日本警察所,第二天,日本人赶到,杨靖宇壮烈牺牲。后来日本人解剖了他的尸体,发现胃里没有一粒粮食,有的只是草根树皮。。。

雅虎的编辑说,他会想起杨靖宇将军死前的内心。

他相信了一个中国人,但是这个中国人给他带来的不是棉鞋和粮食,而是日本人。
他抗日也是为了中国人,但是正是中国人把他交给了日本人。
 还有一个故事是关于八女投江的。"冷云是八女投江中的八位女烈士之一,是她们的领导者。19385月,七万名日寇对抗联第二路军实施"重点讨伐",抗联第四军和第五军面临全军覆没的危局,第二路军总指挥周保中决定两军由吉东地区向西方五常一带作长途突围。第四军和第五军的女同志也被合编成一个妇女团,随主力西下。冷云以她渐渐表现出来的干练和坚定,当了这个团的指导员。

冷云她们经历困难突破敌人的重围,到达了自己的根据地边缘。可就在第二天拂晓,日本人包围了她们的宿营地。一个名叫葛海禄的汉奸向日寇告了密(又是汉奸)。但是日本人首先发现的并不是冷云等八姐妹,而是和她们隔开一段距离宿营的以师长关书范为首的男同志。

这时冷云她们只要自己不暴露,或许就有机会脱险。但是冷云没这么做,八姐妹决定将日本人引开。原因是很简单的:关书范是师长,他所在的地方就是师的指挥所,面对敌人时,她们有责任保护师长和他的指挥所。于是她们首先向日本人开了枪,日本人被引过来,将八姐妹逼到了江边。关书范被枪声惊醒,带着男同志突围出去。冷云八姐妹子弹打完之后在投降、被活捉和投江之间,冷云带着她的姐妹们选择了后者。

故事讲到这里,都是众人皆知的情节。然而很多人不知道的是,正是这西征归来途中的最后一场战斗,击垮了师长关书范的信心,回到二师不久,他就下山和日本人谈判,接受收编。同时还自告奋勇地回到队伍里来,要说服第五军军长柴世荣和第二路军总指挥周保中也和他一起接受日本人的收编,也就是投降。

冷云八姐妹牺牲自己的生命,救出的竟然是一个变节分子。这是她们事先绝对不会想得到的。
如果冷云八姐妹死后有知,她们会后悔吗?她们是不会问这个问题了,问这个问题的应该是我们。"(摘自雅虎画报)

还有一个故事是关于赵尚志的,"赵尚志当年曾被苏联扣押,一年六个月之后,他终于被释放,率领一支小部队返回东北,而此时整个东北的斗争环境和我军内部环境已发生了巨大变化。赵尚志因"犯有严重错误"而被开除党籍。

赵尚志怎么办呢?赵尚志可以有许多选择。他可以选择申诉,向当时代表中共中央领导东北抗联的中共驻莫斯科共产国际代表团申诉。他也可以破罐子破摔,既然你们东北抗联不要我,我干脆就这样待下去好了。凭他的威望和功勋,没有人会不让他继续待下去。当然还有最后一种选择,那就是你们可以不要我,但是我却不能不抗日!
赵尚志没有选择申诉,也没有自暴自弃,性如烈火的他选择了后者。他在攻击鹤立县日伪梧桐河警察署时误入日伪特务的包围圈,壮烈牺牲。

赵尚志直到最后,也没有实现随着他的归来,东北人民会一呼百应,再次掀起一波新的抗日大浪潮的愿望,却实现了自己的另一个心愿。这个心愿是:就是死,我也要死在抗日战场上!

赵尚志死后被运到日伪鹤立梧桐河警察署,日本人欣喜若狂,叫来了当时已经投降日寇的原东北抗联第九军军长李华堂辨认尸体。李华堂在相当长的一个时期内,都曾是赵尚志抗日路线的追随者和赵尚志本人的崇拜者。在一间冰冷的房子里,李华堂一眼就认出了面前的死者就是他矢志追随多年的抗日英雄赵尚志。尽管有不少日本人跟着,他还是哭了,大声喊道:司令,你也这么着了吗?你也这么着了吗?他大哭号啕,被日本人强拉出去。

时常想起这一次的会见。李华堂当时要对赵尚志表示的,究竟是一种什么样的心情呢?他有没有想到过,赵尚志才是真正的英雄,虽死犹生,而他自己虽然活着,其实已经死了?"(选自雅虎画报)

我时常会对中国人的民族性做一些反思,想这个民族的弱点在哪里。为什么在抗战期间会有那么多汉奸,那么多伪军。为什么日本人和德国人可以长驱直入,如入无人之境。他们民族的优点又在哪里?不要告诉我民族之间没有优劣之分,那不过是自欺欺人的话罢了。

我一个朋友是大学老师,曾经在大学英语的课堂上讲 "外国人眼中的中国人",提到中国人的一些缺点。使在座的大学生们颇为不服,非常的不开心。他们不愿意听到中国人有什么弱点,中国人多优秀啊,是不是?
更别提他们会对中国人的弱点进行反思了。 这样的一代人,这样的民族,我在想,会走向何方?
