On August 24, 1938, the Japanese invaders launched an attack on Xingzi County, located south of Lushan Mountain in Jiangxi.
Lushan belonged to the city of Jiujiang in Jiangxi, when the Chinese army deployed a large number of troops in Jiujiang in order to win the Battle of Wuhan and prevent the Japanese army from going north through the Yangtze River to support the Wuhan front, and it was in Lushan that the Chinese army successfully blocked the Japanese attack and eliminated a large number of Japanese invaders.
Although the Battle of Wuhan was finally defeated, the famous Defense of Lushan was successful, and the following is a historical picture of the Japanese invaders invading Xingzi County, a subordinate of Lushan City.
The picture below shows the Japanese Kou's Yamada troops observing the Chinese defenders' positions on the hillside outside the city of Xingzi County, and the Japanese Kou set up artillery positions on them, and they tried to cover the Chinese defenders' positions with artillery fire.
The Japanese Kou set up a camp on the outskirts of Xingzi County, the scene was chaotic, it can be seen that the sun was relatively large that day, these Japanese Kou were hiding in temporary tents to repair the past, and at this time, the Chinese defenders on the opposite side were braving the bright sun against the attack of the Japanese Kou at any time.
At noon on August 25, 1938, the Japanese Tada forces began to launch a ground charge against the county seat of Hoshiko, and these Japanese were slowly advancing from the grass.
A large number of Japanese Kou had rushed to the city wall of Xingzi County, and the city wall of the county town could be seen to be under the bombardment of Japanese artillery, and these Japanese Kou were charging towards the gap in the city wall.
One of the Japanese was injured in the leg, and the other was helping him forward, and it would be better if there was a sniper at this time, directly killing the two live targets.
At 16:00 on the afternoon of August 25, 1938, a group of Japanese Koo climbed up the city wall of Xingzi County, and there were Japanese Koo climbing upwards on the ladder, and it is conceivable that the Chinese defenders who were defending the city wall at that time should have all been martyred.
After the fall of Hoshiko Prefecture, the Fukui troops of the Japanese Kou were taking a group photo in the city, which was a archway in the county seat, which also wrote the spirit of unity and the three people's principles.
A group of Japanese Kou were taking pictures at the gate of Xingzi County, and the city had been completely blackened by artillery fire
After the capture of Xingzi County, the Japanese Kou swept around the county seat, and a group of Japanese Kou were marching towards a village, while a large number of Chinese troops were reinforcing the fortifications on the distant mountain.
The mountain in the distance is called the Eastern Arc Mountain, and from the mountain you can also launch a counterattack on the Japanese Kou at the bottom of the mountain.
Two Japanese war correspondents were recording the war on the front line, named Asada and Saito, and the historical data of the Japanese invasion of Hoshiko Prefecture were also recorded by these war correspondents.
This is the castle tower facing the direction of Poyang Lake, and the Futian forces of the Japanese Kou have occupied this place.
A scene in the county seat of Xingzi County, the street has no longer been bustling in the past, only a few Japanese Kou are resting here.
The annotation on the right side of the photo reads that Jiangnan and Jiangbei echoed what kind of onslaught, and the Wuhan defense battle stronghold broke through.
After the Japanese occupied Hoshiko Prefecture, they began to invade other areas, and the Japanese troops were marching with the Japanese Kou's Tsuda troops.
Chinese people took fourteen years to completely defeat the Japanese invaders, and the victory was not easy to come by, and we must remember history and never let such history reappear.
