What did the Japanese soldiers do after the "Five Heroes of Wolf Tooth Mountain" jumped off the cliff? Unveiling the truth 56 years later
Introduction: In 1941, the Eighth Route Army was surrounded and suppressed by the Japanese army, in order to cover the withdrawal of the regimental headquarters, five soldiers took the initiative to stay behind. They constantly maneuvered with the enemy and succeeded in leading the enemy up the Wolf's Tooth Mountain. Then they preferred to die and jumped off the cliff together. These five warriors were Ma Baoyu, Ge Zhenlin, Song Xueyi, Hu Delin, and Hu Fucai, among whom Ge Zhenlin and Song Xueyi were blocked by tree trunks, and they luckily saved their lives. Song Xueyi fell disabled and later returned to his hometown to recuperate.
Ge Zhenlin, on the other hand, was unharmed, promoted to regimental commander, and after the founding of New China, he also participated in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and made great contributions many times. The five warriors were recognized by all the people of the country, their names were written into the textbook, and the story of "The Five Heroes of Wolf's Tooth Mountain" was deeper into our minds. Some people once wondered what the Japanese soldiers did back then, but in fact, media reporters have already made disclosures. Let's take a good look.
In 1997, 56 years after the five heroes of Wolf's Tooth Mountain jumped off a cliff, Ichiro Ozawa, a Japanese soldier at the time, was interviewed by the Chinese media. Ichiro Ozawa was already full of white hair at this time, but he still remembered the past of the battle. At that time, more than a thousand Japanese troops participated in the encirclement and suppression, and their soldiers rushed to The Wolf's Tooth Mountain in three ways. The five brave men resisted vigorously, but their ammunition was quickly exhausted. Ichiro Ozawa's captain asked them to surrender, but the five heroes threw stones on the mountain.
The Japanese continued to attack upwards, and little by little they forced the five brave men to the top of the cliff. The five brave men refused to be taken prisoners and jumped down the hill. The fog in the mountains that day was lingering, but they clearly heard the loud sound of the five heroes falling to the ground. The Japanese leading officers admired them quite much, and all the soldiers took off their hats and gave the highest military respect to the five heroes. The Japanese captain fired five shots into the sky as a sign of reverence for the hero. The Japanese soldiers actually made such a move, which was unexpected. In fact, the spirit of the five heroes of Wolf's Tooth Mountain to sacrifice their lives for righteousness is rare in the world, and they have set an excellent example for Chinese boys.
Conclusion: Today's Wolf's Tooth Mountain has been developed by the local government, and a monument to the Five Heroes has been built there. Whenever tourists from all over the world come to play, they will present bouquets of flowers to the five heroes. In times of national crisis, our descendants have bravely shouldered their responsibilities. Their spirit still inspires young generations, who will always be remembered by the people. In the future, I hope that all Chinese people can bravely face everything. How many difficulties our Chinese nation has overcome and achieved success is China's boldness.
