Xie Fangde was active in the late Song Dynasty and early Yuan Dynasty. He is a die-hard fan of Mr. Dongpo, and because he likes Dongpo's poem "There are 300 stacks of green hills on the stream", he is also called Dieshan. Talking with people about governing the country in ancient and modern times is bound to set off a green beard, board the console table, put on airs and be impassioned, and take loyalty and righteousness as the creed of life. Because I like to call a spade a spade, I often offend powerful ministers.
In the fifth year of Bao You, Xie Fangde presided over the Jianningfu exam. He accused Jia Sidao, the minister of state power, of posing as an examination question, and was demoted to serve in the grass-roots units. After the Yuan people went south, they organized volunteers to fight against Yuan many times. However, due to the treacherous court official in the Southern Song Dynasty, the national defense forces were losing ground, and Xie Fangde could do nothing. After the demise of the Southern Song Dynasty, Xie Fangde lived among the people.
As a adherent of the Southern Song Dynasty, Xie Fangde is a man of steel. He lived in a hotel in an anonymous way. He wears linen and Ma Xie every day, crying in the East, mourning his old country and recalling the past. After making a living as a diviner, Xie Fangde became a diviner, bringing only rice, flour and shoes. If someone gave him money, he refused to accept it and lived a light and poor life.
After the establishment of the Yuan Dynasty, it was eager to recruit the old ministers of the Song Dynasty as officials to show that the new government was eager to recruit talents. Among the 22 officials recommended by the Southern Song Dynasty, Xie Fangde ranked first, while Xie Fangde insisted on resigning. After Prime Minister Zhao Zhao, Xie Fangde encouraged himself with Chao Fu and Xu You. The reason why he refused was strange. My name, Xie Fangde, is unlucky. I am afraid of polluting the new pilgrimage, so I dare not believe it. Later, his old colleague Liu recommended him. Writing to Liu refused, but he still didn't come out.
Yue Fei is loyal to the country.
In the summer of the 10th year of Shaoxing (1 140), the Jin people tore up the contract and invaded the south. Yue Fei rose up against Japan and defeated the Jinbing soldiers in Cai Zhou, Yingzhou, Zhengzhou, Xijing, Haozhou, Xuzhou, Mengzhou, Weizhou, Huaizhou, Yancheng and other places, and in Shunchang and Yancheng.
At the same time that Yue Fei won successive victories of Pi Mo and Jin Kang, on July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July/July In the 11th year of Shaoxing (1 14 1), Qin Gui instigated Wan Yi to falsely accuse Yue Fei, who had been fighting the main battle, of "rebellion" and bought Wang Jun as a false witness. In October, Yue Fei's father and son and his department Zhang Xian were imprisoned in Hangzhou Dali Temple.
In the 11th year of Shaoxing (114265438+1October 28th)1February 29th, Zhao Gou Qin Gui falsely accused Yue Fei and his son and Zhang Xian of "unwarranted rebellion", and Yue Fei would rather die than surrender. Before his execution, he wrote eight big characters: "It's dawn, it's dawn".
Wen Tianxiang would rather die than surrender.
Wen Tianxiang, a national hero in the Southern Song Dynasty, was defeated and captured, and spent three years in a dungeon, repeatedly refusing to discuss with the enemy. One day, Kublai Khan personally persuaded him to surrender, and Xu served as prime minister. He did not waver, but said firmly, "I just want to die for my country."
Before the execution, the executioner came forward and said, "Premier Wen, if you change your mind now, you can not only avoid death, but also become the prime minister." Wen Tianxiang in anger, "dead died. What nonsense are you talking about! " Wen Tianxiang's generosity to the South left a touching song of benevolence and righteousness for the world.
4. Tan Sitong laughs at death.
1898, Emperor Guangxu decided to reform, and Tan Sitong became the main assistant. Unexpectedly, Empress Dowager Cixi staged another coup, imprisoned the emperor and ordered the arrest of reformists. Kang Youwei and others escaped. Tan sitong didn't run. He said, "No country's political reform is successful without bloodshed. At present, there is no artificial political reform in China, which is the reason why the country cannot be strong. If someone wants to bleed, start with me! "
After Tan Sitong was arrested, he wrote a poem in prison without fear: "Laugh at the sky with a horizontal knife and live in Kunlun Mountain." Before being taken to the execution ground for punishment, he shouted, "If you want to kill a thief, you can't go back to heaven. A fair death honors the whole life! " The just man who smiles and faces death has his motherland in his heart.
5, Ji Hongchang.
1931September 2 1 day, General Ji Hongchang, who was determined to resist Japan, was forced to step down by Chiang Kai-shek and went abroad to "inspect the industry". When the ship arrived in the United States, Ji Hongchang was stimulated by one emergency after another. For example, the first-class hotels there don't accept China people, but they worship Japanese people.
Once, Ji Hongchang wanted to send clothes to China, but the post office staff actually said that there was no China in the world. Ji Hongchang was so angry that he was about to have a fit. The accompanying embassy counselor advised: "Why didn't you say you were Japanese? As long as you say you are Japanese, you can be treated with courtesy. " Ji Hongchang immediately angered: "You think China people are humiliated, but I think China people are glorious!" In order to protest against imperialism's discrimination against the people of China and safeguard national dignity, he found a wooden sign and carefully wrote on it in English: "I'm from China!"
