"This is the Independent Merit Medal and Victory Merit Medal, and here is the confiscated Japanese military knife..." In mid March, the Honor Room of the Ma'anshan Rest Center of the Anhui Military Region welcomed a group of visitors - representatives of teachers and students from the city's Caimo Elementary School. The students watched the red exhibition and listened to battle stories carefully and attentively. The team leader sighed, "I never expected that there are such good red education resources around us that can allow students to have a close understanding of history and pay tribute to heroes." In 2023, the military region of the province standardized the construction of the honor rooms in its 15 rest centers, creating a red education base that looks back on history, questions the original intention, and purifies the soul, and opened it to primary and secondary schools in the area. They adopt immersive, experiential, and interactive educational methods to allow red memories to permeate the hearts of young students. "The fighting spirit forged by veteran cadres during wartime and the patriotism displayed during peacetime construction are precious red genes." The leader of the cadre's rest center said that the experience of veteran cadres is a vivid teaching material for carrying out national defense education. For this purpose, they mainly focus on the combat experience of veteran cadres, shoot and produce red micro videos, interview and write red story collections, organize young students to listen to veteran cadres tell battle stories face-to-face, and enhance national defense awareness. They also establish co construction relationships with the four schools in the area, regularly carry out red themed activities, and make the rest center the ideological and political classroom and party and youth activities battlefield of the local schools. The reporter saw at the event that Zhang Lisheng, a veteran cadre who had participated in the Menglianggu Campaign, was telling battle stories to representatives of teachers and students. Speaking of the thrilling battle, Zhang Lisheng's eyes were filled with tears as he said, "At that time, the equipment of the East China Field Army was relatively rudimentary, with almost no heavy weapons. The enemy was equipped with brand new American equipment, and their guns and artillery were more advanced than ours. After the battle began, all the soldiers fought bravely and fought to the death, relying on their firm beliefs to completely annihilate the elite 74th Division of the Kuomintang." Zhang Lisheng's heartfelt narration deeply moved the teachers and students present. Student representative He Mingye said, "Grandpa Zhang was not a few years older than us when he joined the military. I want to learn from Grandpa Zhang and join the military to defend our country when I grow up." Wang Zunming, the principal of Caimo Elementary School, said, "The red resources in the rest room are fresh and intuitive. Let students listen to the old revolution talking about history and ideals on site, which is beneficial for them to better inherit the red gene and cultivate patriotism."
