Ma Jizhi, the grandson of Yang Jingyu, said, "As a descendant of the Anti Japanese United Front, we must tell the story of Jilin well, especially the red story, so that the spirit of the Northeast Anti Japanese United Front can be continuously inherited and contribute our modest efforts to the development of the new era
