When Wuhan was captured by the Japanese in 1938, the Japanese changed the previous mode of operations, attacking Chongqing and supporting air operations, and its deep purpose and intention was to destroy the confidence and intention of the Communist Party of China in resisting.

In May 1935, the ancient city of Chongqing was unfortunately washed by war, and the Japanese Kou carried out a full-scale bombardment of it, carrying arms to burn in the most densely populated area of Chongqing for two consecutive days, according to relevant statistics: the fire destroyed a total of 4889 buildings, causing more than 200,000 people to be homeless and adrift. The three sisters of the Song family in the photo are now in a ruin in Chongqing.

In order to increase the morale of the Chinese compatriots in the War of Resistance Against Japan, the three sisters of the Song family gathered together in Chongqing and participated in various famous banquets in various names.

Song Xialing and Song Meiling set off from Chongqing on July 9, 1944, and Song Qingling sent off the sisters. This farewell was also the last time the three sisters of the Song family met, and since then, the three sisters have not been together again. According to the records of relevant information, the three sisters of the Song family left their hometown when they were young, and later the three met again in the United States, but when the Anti-Japanese War broke out, except for the Hong Kong gathering, the last time they gathered together was in Chongqing, the Bashu region. Of course, the gathering in the Chongqing area of Bashu is also because of the country, so that the country can be liberated at an early date, and it has made great contributions, which is really admirable!
