China's most tenacious city, the Mongols attacked 36 years, Japan attacked 6 years, stunned that it failed to break through the city gate!
In history, There are many cities in China that have been occupied by great powers in wars for thousands of years, but among the many cities in China, there is such a city, which is called "the most difficult city in China to conquer". It is also the most tenacious city in our country, this city once served as the capital of our country, in the Yuan Dynasty, it was attacked by the Mongols for 36 years, during the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Japanese fought for 6 years without occupying the city, and also created a miracle in the history of China's defense.
There is a mountain outside Chongqing, called Diaoyu Mountain, the people build a fishing city according to the city, the Jialing River flows through, surrounded by water on three sides and a mountain on one side, easy to defend and difficult to attack. In the 13th century, the Mongol army attacked the Southern Song Dynasty, the entire territory of the Central Plains was in full view, after the Cliff Mountain, the Southern Song Dynasty was destroyed, only the Diaoyu City could not be attacked for a long time, the Mongol Great Khan personally commanded 100,000 Mongol soldiers to attack the Diaoyu City, Möngke Khan was assassinated by the Secret Arrow of the Song Army, the Mongol army was leaderless, Kublai Khan on the south road, and Battus who were far away in Europe on the western road had all returned to the dynasty and competed for the throne.
It was not until the fall of the Song Dynasty in 1279 that the city surrendered to the Mongol army and entered the city, otherwise more Mongols would have died at the head of Chongqing. In 1938, the Japanese army launched a large-scale attack on Chongqing by land, sea and air, in an attempt to occupy Chongqing and force it to surrender. In the Chongqing Stone Monument, the Japanese suffered heavy setbacks, the defender Hu Lian was not afraid of life and death, led the army to die to resist, and finally the battle lasted for five years, the Japanese army suffered heavy casualties, had to abandon the land attack, and used aircraft to bomb, but until the end of World War II in 1945, Japan failed to capture Chongqing.
It can be said that Chongqing is the most cattle city in China, but also the most tenacious city, representing the indomitable and fearless spirit of the Chinese nation, and is a respectable city! Today's Chongqing, because it is located in the southwest region, has also become a comprehensive transportation hub connecting the north and the south, and is also an international metropolis that shines in the southwest!
