Zhongshan Ship, formerly known as Yongfeng Ship, was ordered by the Qing government from the Japanese shipyard in 19 10, and returned to China after the completion of19/3, and was incorporated into the navy of Beiyang government. Although the tonnage of Zhongshan is small, it has become a famous ship with its unique history:1915-1916. In response to Dr. Sun Yat-sen's call, "Yongfeng" took part in the movement to protect the country and seek the yuan, which was the first time to be brave. Later, it experienced the movement of protecting the law and the crusade against rebellion in the East. 1938+ 10 was sunk by the Japanese in the waters of Jinkou, Jiangxia District, Wuhan during the defending war in Wuhan in October.
After all the bumps, we came to the gate of Zhongshan Ship Museum and saw Zhongshan Ship Museum from a distance. From the outside, it looks like a huge warship.
The first scenic spot we visited was the Martyrs Monument at the top of Niutou Mountain. The 25 sculpture columns of the Martyrs Monument, with their swords soaring into the sky, symbolize 25 Zhongshan Ship soldiers who fought bravely against Japanese planes and died unfortunately. We saw that the tombstone was covered with chrysanthemum petals, which represented our modern people's memory of these 25 fallen soldiers.
Zhongshan Ship has experienced five major events, and it is also a warship that Sun Yat-sen, the father of our country, took at a critical juncture. 1997, when Zhongshan Ship was salvaged from the water, there were 14 Zhongshan Ship soldiers who participated in the battle with Japanese planes in 1938. By 2008, there were only two survivors: Chen, a trainee officer at that time, and an engineer at that time, who later became lieutenant generals of the Kuomintang. 1998 Chen came from Taiwan Province to see Zhongshan Ship. In 2006, Americans also arrived in Korea to reunite with the ship.
After that, we also visited the sculpture of Zhongshan Ship Memorial Park, which reproduces the magnificent Wuhan Battle in the form of art and is the largest sculpture group in Wuhan. These sculptures were created by many famous sculptors in China. Professor Sun Jiabin of Lu Xun Academy of Fine Arts is in charge of the large-scale sculptures Blood River and National War of Resistance. Professor Ye Yushan, a famous sculptor in China, participated in the planning and design of the sculpture. The teams of Hubei Academy of Fine Arts and Wuhan University of Technology bravely shouldered the heavy burden, kept improving and contributed their masterpieces. Experts in the history of Wuhan Anti-Japanese War and Zhongshan Ship also participated in the collection and demonstration of historical facts.
Finally, we visited the Zhongshan Ship Museum. 1999, 1 1 In June, Wuhan started the Zhongshan Ship Restoration and Protection Project. After the restoration, Zhongshan Ship has been restored to its original historical appearance when Yongfeng Ship was named Zhongshan Ship in 1925, and the historical trace of being sunk by enemy planes in 1938 "Wuhan Defence War" has been preserved, which embodies the national spirit of China people's perseverance, heroic struggle, continuous advance and self-improvement. On May 25th, 2008 16: 58, the 96-year-old Zhongshan Ship arrived at the entrance of Zhongshan Ship Exhibition Hall after a transportation of 10. People suggested to the relocation team that the bow should be aimed at the hero monument of Zhongshan Ship on Niutou Mountain, so the employees of the shipping company made fine adjustments to each other. There was a bullet hole on the starboard side of Zhongshan Ship, which was attacked by the Japanese. 1937, after the full-scale outbreak of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, 49 warships, including Zhongshan, were transferred to the Yangtze River by the Kuomintang government. Most of these ships were sunk by Japanese planes and naval guns, or sank on the so-called "silver plug line" such as Jiangyin and Madang.
1in the autumn of 938, after the fall of Beijing and Shanghai, Wuhan became one of the main targets of the Japanese attack. Zhongshan Ship was ordered to participate in the Wuhan Defence War, and was responsible for the alert and transportation tasks of Jiayu in Jinkou, Wuchang County and Xindi to Zhenjiang. At that time, the main and auxiliary guns of Zhongshan Ship had been dismantled and installed on several fortresses on the shore. 1On the afternoon of October 24th 1938 105, the ship Zhongshan was suddenly attacked by six enemy planes while cruising in Jinkou River, Hubei Province. Captain Sa Shijun and 25 others were killed in the battle, and more than 20 people were injured. The "Zhongshan" ship was shot at the stern and other key parts, but it was ineffective after emergency repair and sank in the waves.
Today's visit made me gain a lot of knowledge and let me know this history. Only when the country is strong, we will not be bullied, and we will have a position in the world and have the right to speak.
