松毛岭祭无名英烈 一碗热粥四代传承

8月27日，福建连城县文坊村村民来到松毛岭红军无名烈士墓前进行祭奠1。这一纪念活动源于90年前的一段历史——1934年9月下旬，松毛岭战役作为中央红军主力战略转移前的最后一场重大战役进行，红九军团等部队在此参战1。战役结束后，村民项仲炳等22名村民冒着白色恐怖收敛了红军遗骨1。

延续至今的祭奠传统已传承至第四代1。村民们用肉粥代替白粥，以此纪念那些牺牲的红军战士1。村民项贤洲强调，"先辈的事，我们世世代代不能忘"1。文坊村形成了约定俗成的祭奠规则——每逢农历三月、八月扫墓时，村民必先祭奠红军墓，再为亲人扫墓1。

On August 27, villagers from Wenfang in Liancheng County, Fujian Province, gathered at the unnamed martyrs' tomb on Songmaoshe Ridge to pay their respects, continuing a tradition spanning ninety years 1. The commemoration centers on a ritual offering of warm porridge—now prepared with meat rather than plain rice—dedicated to the Red Army soldiers who perished during the pivotal 1934 campaign 1.

The Songmaoshe Ridge battle unfolded in late September 1934 as a decisive engagement where the Ninth Army Corps and other units of the Central Red Army's main force fought before their strategic retreat 1. In the aftermath, twenty-two villagers, including Xiang Zhongbing—the grandfather of current villager Xiang Xianzhou—risked their lives under the threat of white terror to collect and bury the fallen soldiers' remains 1.

The memorial practice has now passed to the fourth generation of descendants, with participants bound by an unwavering principle: the Red Army tomb must be venerated before any ancestor's grave receives attention 1. Xiang Xianzhou reflects this commitment, stating that "the deeds of our forebears must never be forgotten by our descendants, generation after generation" 1. The villagers observe these ceremonies during the third and eighth lunar months each year, ensuring that the memory of the unnamed martyrs remains part of their collective identity 1.
