Qiqihar, in the Daur word for that border town.
To the fast for 20 days, finally had a day free. From the maps last night started doing homework and decided a few places: Moon Island, Lonza Park, Mahayana Temple.
Qiqihar bus is very convenient, the above-mentioned places are direct buses. My last stop was to Mahayana Temple. 7 way car end. Temples very large, do not buy tickets, dedicated to the Goddess of Mercy, no pilgrims. North temple, planted mostly pine and cypress, looked very solemn.
Went to the temple back door, to see across the road is a very large cemetery. The door was shocked to read: Simon cemeteries of revolutionary martyrs.
Simon, one of the Northeast People's Liberation Army base, two vertical cradle.
The main entrance open, no one.
Walked in, rows of graves, each grave is a monument legislation.
At this point it is almost noon, direct sunlight, the tall poplar because it has come to late autumn, the leaves have become golden. Strong winds, a thick layer of fallen leaves on the ground.
Off their hats, I have a month's pass.
Shandong, Jiangsu, Hunan, Yunnan, Sichuan, and Nen's. Head of political commissar, battalion commander, Chief, Chui Shiban long, more of an ordinary soldier. Have participated in the march of the Fourth Army veterans, have just joined the revolution of the new recruits.

They imagine a cold winter, minus 40 degrees south of the north-east three times, four battle Siping, these Southern soldiers, is with how the fiery heart, only the number of dominant defeated the Kuomintang, the five main armed nation in the three it?
48 years of the Liaoning-Shenyang Campaign, Zhang Wu, Siping. . . Liaoning Shenyang is the largest, it is their sacrifice place.
Most of these young people are not married to it, the war years, the vast majority of even his girlfriend could not before. May also be in the Jiangnan Water Village, in western Hunan's hometown has been waiting for him to go back to a beautiful girl.
But they never did not see, and they lie buried in the northeastern border town.
Home mother, to walk the distance how far can we see his son one does?
In the middle of numerous white grave, I am a person stands quietly for a long time. They are neatly arranged, as if to war soon.
The political commissar is a two year longitudinal Wu Faxian. Later well-known culprits of Lin Biao counterrevolutionary clique. But in that time, famous Wudamazai, Lin hands of a tiger the total.
Comrade Mao Zedong's inscription ago, I once again hat moment of silence for these young lives, for those flying forever young youth.
