During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, many heroic stories were born that could be sung and wept, and in the face of Japan's advanced equipment and cruel means, they not only did not yield, but were reborn in one struggle after another, and their tenacious struggle shocked the Japanese army.
Yang Jingyu was a famous anti-Japanese national hero who was born in 1905 to a peasant family in Queshan County. When he was very young, his father left him, and although his mother was a female stream, she also always taught Yang Jingyu to serve the motherland and not to waste this life. Yang Jingyu joined the revolution at the age of 18, and for the next 5 years he continued to carry out revolutionary movements in various places. In 1928, Yang Jingyu was arrested and imprisoned five times, and in the face of the enemy's severe torture, Yang Jingyu showed inhuman willpower and did not reveal half a message of our army.
In 1929, Yang Jingyu received orders from his superiors to go to the northeast to fight against the Japanese miners who had invaded china's coal mines. Since 1936, the Japanese army has repeatedly carried out military activities in the northeast region, Yang Jingyu faced the enemy army, adopted guerrilla and roundabout tactics to give the enemy a heavy blow, in the face of the disparity in strength between the enemy and us, Yang Jingyu ordered the soldiers to create the illusion of hasty defeat and retreat, secretly making the troops march for more than 18 days, luring the enemy to go deep into the encirclement, and later the Japanese army really went to the party, after 4 hours of all-out strangulation, Yang Jingyu annihilated the main force of the Japanese army in one fell swoop.
As Yang Jingyu's reputation in the northeast became more and more famous, the Japanese army listed Yang Jingyu as the number one enemy, and they constantly plotted against Yang Jingyu's subordinates, hoping to disintegrate Yang Jingyu's troops from within. Poor Yang Jingyu was patriotic and had no idea that there were four traitors under his command. Cheng Bin, Zhang Xiufeng, Zhao Tingxi, Zhang Xiruo, with the full cooperation of their four traitors, Yang Jingyu finally fell on the snow in front of a large tree in the ice and snow, and died at the age of 35.
After Yang Jingyu's death, the Japanese officer in charge of besieging him, Takaichiro Kishitani, was very curious about Yang Jingyu, and before that, Yang Jingyu was alone in the ice and snow, running out of food and equipment, and he really did not understand how Yang Jingyu survived. So Kishitani Ryuichiro asked the soldiers to take his stomach for testing to see what food was inside. As a result, General Yang Jingyu's stomach was full of dry grass and cotton wool, and there was no grain, and he was deeply shocked by Yang Jingyu, and he had to admit that Yang Jingyu was a hero, even if he was an enemy, he deserved his admiration.
Kishitani Ryuichiro has been silent since Yang Jingyu's death, but he has not stopped shedding tears, his heart has been tormented, and within a day, he has aged a lot. In 1945, on the eve of the surrender of the Japanese army, Kishitani Ryuichiro wrote a suicide note expressing his apologies for the war and always admiring Yang Jingyu's patriotism. Subsequently, in order to pay tribute to Yang Jingyu, he first poisoned his wife and daughter, and then committed suicide by caesarean section, and Kishitani Ryuichiro used his life to express his respect for General Yang Jingyu.
The martyrs' cemetery of General Yang Jingyu is in Tonghua City, Jilin Province, where people never forget the heroic deeds of General Yang Yang Jingyu.
