In the seventies and eighties of the last century, on the land of China, there was a child from a peasant family in Shandong who embarked on the revolutionary road step by step, experienced the smoke of war and the eventful years, and finally became a respected old party member.
Lin Hujia served as the secretary of the municipal party committee in Beijing, Tianjin and Shanghai, and made important contributions to education and national construction.
Although he experienced ups and downs along the way, he always adhered to his ideals and beliefs and passed away at the age of 101.
Embrace ideals
Lin Hujia was born into a wealthy family and received a good education since childhood. At that time, he was still young and naïve, living a life without quarrel with the world.
In 1936, the ambitious Lin Hujia went to Qingdao to study.
Japanese imperialism is becoming more and more rampant, and the traitors and pro-Japanese factions are rampant and hegemonic, and they hate Chinese culture.
Lin Hujia was so indignant that he joined the underground party organization and threw himself into the national liberation movement. Lin Hujia also awakened his determination to resist tyranny in this wave.
In July 1937, the Lugou Bridge Incident broke out, and the all-out War of Resistance began. Lin Hujia, who was still a college student at the time, stepped forward to become an anti-Japanese vanguard. The following year, he personally participated in the Rongcheng Uprising, and from then on officially embarked on the revolutionary road.
After the uprising, Lin Hujia joined the National Salvation Army as an instructor. In the guerrilla zone of the Jiaodong Peninsula, he played the role of propagandist and organizer, uniting the masses and calling for resistance. The Japanese army frantically "swept up", and Lin Hujia also experienced the cruelty of the war, but the more he fought, the more courageous he became, and his fighting spirit was high.
In 1942, the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression entered its most arduous stage. The Japanese puppet army did not hesitate to besiege the Taishan area with heavy troops, causing heavy losses to military institutions.
In the face of difficulties, Lin Hujia was appointed as the secretary of the prefectural party committee and the political commissar of the sub-district. He reflected on the situation and called on all comrades to brace themselves and unite in guerrilla warfare.
不畏牺薩
In the face of the frantic "sweep" of the Japanese puppet army, Lin Hujia persevered, led the party, government, military and people to change their struggle tactics in Taishan District, and organized guerrillas to counterattack one after another. He personally commanded the breakout campaigns many times and broke the blockade.
Zhao Jiawen fighting in 1943. The Japanese army dispatched thousands of men and horses to encircle and suppress the party's base areas in an attempt to completely destroy the anti-Japanese forces.
Lin Hujia made a decision on the spot and led his troops to launch an impregnable defensive operation.
The fighting lasted for several days, and the two sides came and went. In the end, the enemy forces were forced to withdraw, and our side crushed its main forces and won a phased victory.
The Battle of Daheyu was equally thrilling. At that time, our army was heavily surrounded by the enemy and was in a desperate situation. Following Lin Hujia's instructions, the troops dispersed and defeated the enemy.
They braved the rain of bullets to break out of the encirclement, and saw the opportunity to survive in the bleak way, and finally won the life with a small fight.
At the time of the Battle of Huahongyu, the Taishan District was under a serious threat of "sweeping" and was in danger. Lin Hujia commanded the forces to assemble at Huahongyu in a roundabout way and set up an ambush.
After the enemy army took on its own accomplishments, our side fought back bravely and annihilated more than 600 people. This battle completely broke the deadlock and won a respite for the people of Taishan to tide over the difficulties.
Lin Hujia also extensively united the masses and mobilized forces from all quarters to support the front. During the Battle of Laiwu, he set up a special support agency and called on the people to donate money and materials.
The Taishan District also dispatched tens of thousands of people to serve as orderlies to carry ammunition, grain, and grass for the officers and men on the front line. This kind of cooperation of the whole people laid a solid foundation for the victory of the battle of crossing the river.
The great cause of nationhood
After the end of the civil war, Lin Hujia devoted himself to the great cause of national construction. He successively served as the chief of propaganda, secretary general and deputy secretary in Zhejiang, focusing on promoting agricultural development.
At the beginning of his tenure, Zhejiang's rural productive forces were seriously damaged, and the people were struggling to make a living. Lin Hu has deepened his understanding of the importance of grain to the national economy and people's livelihood, and has taken effective measures to restore agricultural production in an all-round way.
He carried out a lot of civil engineering works and built water conservancy facilities. At Linhujia's call, the peasants gathered into a river, spontaneously organized the capture of the river, and built a reservoir and dam.
In just a few years, a large number of large and medium-sized water conservancy projects have come into being, fundamentally solving the problem of drought and flood.
Lin Hujia also took the lead in building farmland and water conservancy to consolidate the foundation of agriculture. Zhejiang people buy cattle everywhere and set up a production team. They dredged rivers, surveyed water sources, and reclaimed wasteland.
Lin Hujia personally went into the fields to guide the farmers in carrying out basic farm work. Every once in a while, he would go on field trips and replicate successful practices.
In addition, Lin Hujia pays attention to the introduction of new varieties to improve yield efficiency. At that time, traditional high-stem rice was cultivated in most areas of Zhejiang, which had low yields and was prone to lodging.
To this end, Lin Hujia organized the study and promotion of dwarf breeds. After patient demonstration, the farmers quickly mastered the planting technique. In those years, Zhejiang's grain output increased year by year, which strongly supported the country's industrialization process.
Lin Hujia's efforts finally bore fruit. In just a few years, Zhejiang's rural areas have quickly recovered from decay.
In 1965, Lin Hujia was appointed to participate in the preparation of the five-year plan for the construction of the "third line" of national development. This major policy decision has laid the foundation for promoting the process of industrialization in the hinterland.
After 1972, he was transferred to the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee.
The old and the old
In 1978, Lin Hujia successively served as the secretary of the Tianjin Municipal Party Committee and the Beijing Municipal Party Committee. In the past two years, he has vigorously promoted the expansion of college enrollment and changed the fate of thousands of students.
At that time, the number of students applying to college far exceeded the enrollment plan. Many candidates who pass the test do not have access to higher education, and their prospects are worrying. Lin Hujia is sympathetic to public opinion and is determined to expand the scale of enrollment.
He first conducted a pilot project in Tianjin, and convened the presidents of Nankai and other universities to discuss countermeasures. Finally, it was decided to set up branch campuses in colleges and universities, so that more students can study at universities.
In this way, Tianjin added 10 new university branches that year, and the admission list was 8,000 more than the original. These children from ordinary families got the opportunity to change their fate with their 816 tricks.
Lin Hujia copied Tianjin's approach to Beijing. When the spring semester began in 1979, 16,800 more new students entered the classroom than planned, including children from rural and working-class families.
After retiring, Lin Hujia did not completely stop. In 1983, he was invited to serve as an advisor to the Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Husbandry and Fisheries, and continued to advise on the country's agricultural development. Two years later, at the age of 68, he was elected a member of the Central Advisory Committee and reached the rank of vice president.
On September 13, 2018, this venerable veteran revolutionary passed away in Beijing, leaving behind a glorious life.
