"You guys take a break, just keep up!"
Yang Chengwu, commander and political commissar of the First Military Subdistrict of the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region, said to more than 100 female nurses from the guard school.
They had just engaged in a desperate battle with the Japanese.
The Japanese were successfully repulsed.
However, Commander Yang believes that the current situation is not optimistic and that an emergency evacuation is needed.
However, most of the female students of these guard schools are fifteen or sixteen years old, and after a battle, they are already exhausted.
In desperation, Yang Chengwu agreed to their request for a short rest.
Yang Chengwu, on the other hand, first led thousands of people to Wolf Tooth Mountain.
What Yang Chengwu didn't expect was that this time the separation became a farewell.
This also became the most painful thing in his life.
So, what happened after Yang Chengwu left?
What happened to the more than a hundred female students of the Guardian School?
In August 1941, the Eighth Route Army launched a bloody campaign on the Zhengtai Line, mobilizing more than 100 regiments and launching a fierce offensive against the Japanese.
The warriors of our army fought bloodily, bravely and tenaciously resisted the enemy's attack.
With resolute courage and fearless sacrifice, they successfully eliminated a large number of Japanese enemy troops, dealt a heavy blow to the enemy, and won an important victory in the War of Resistance Against Japan. Only published in the headline number, all other platforms are porters
However, after our phased victory, the Japanese began a frantic counterattack.
In September, the Japanese launched an offensive against Yi County, splitting into three routes in an attempt to encircle the troops commanded by Commander Yang Chengwu of the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Subdistrict.
Japanese General Ninji Okamura arranged the Japanese troops densely, as if laying an invisible net.
He sent a small force to carry out a "combing clearance" and quickly cut off our rear supply lines, leaving our troops in a difficult situation.
At the same time, he also adopted the tactics of "horseshoe-shaped fortress line", concentrating heavy troops on the passages where our troops could escape, leaving us no chance to escape.
What's more, he also arranged a "dot-scale encirclement net",
Surrounded our base areas so tightly that the living space of our army was compressed to the extreme.
In this regard, our army's strategic decision is "36 plans, go ahead."
Because, although our army has a clear superiority in numbers, there is a huge gap between us and the Japanese army's technical equipment and tactical level.
In order to preserve its valuable anti-Japanese strength, the Eighth Route Army made a difficult and decisive decision: the main forces carried out a position transfer and temporarily left the place. Only published in the headline number, all other platforms are porters
At this time, Yang Chengwu, commander of the First Military Region of Jin-Cha-Ji, received an order to urgently retreat, and he led more than 700 troops from Shunping County to the area of Langya Mountain in Yi County.
They hurried through the precipitous valley, and everyone could feel the shadow of the approaching enemy behind them.
When Yang Chengwu and his party came to the area of Ladder Ditch, they were suddenly surrounded by Japanese invaders from all directions.
The enemy's muzzles and blades approached, and the tense atmosphere made everyone's heartbeat accelerate.
In the face of the predicament, Yang Chengwu was undeterred, and he urgently discussed a new transfer route with Deputy Commander Gao Peng and Chief of Staff Huang Shou.
Their initial idea was to go to Langya Mountain, which was once a stronghold of the Eighth Route Army, familiar and safe.
However, the urgency of the situation made them quickly change their plans, and they realized that jumping to nearby Huata Mountain might be more concealed and safer.
Under the cover of night, Yang Chengwu led the team to carefully cross the mountains and forests, trying to avoid the eyes and ears of the enemy. Every step is cautious and determined, knowing that if discovered, they will face an even more brutal dilemma.
After a difficult trek, Yang Chengwu and his team finally reached Huata Mountain.
The mountain is steep and densely vegetated, providing them with cover.
In this mountain forest, they have temporarily found safe refuge. Only published in the headline number, all other platforms are porters
However, this is only a temporary respite.
Yang Chengwu knew that they were still surrounded by enemies, and only by finding a safer place could they truly protect their lives and anti-Japanese strength.
His eyes were firm and determined, and he vowed to lead this brave team to persevere, no matter how cunning the enemy was, no matter how severe the difficulties.
The first rays of sunlight of dawn shone on Huata Mountain, dyeing everything with a golden brilliance.
Yang Chengwu stood on the top of the mountain and picked up the binoculars to take a closer look.
The sight in front of him made his heart tighten.
The boundless enemy tents spread out, like a dark cloud of black oppression, spreading into the distance.
He couldn't help but wonder, how did the enemy find this hidden place? Only published in the headline number, all other platforms are porters
At this moment, a noisy sound came from below the mountain.
Yang Chengwu turned to look and saw a squad of 300 people walking up the mountain at a gallop, his eyes revealing exhaustion and nervousness.
However, several of them surprised Yang Chengwu, among whom there was the political commissar of the logistics department of the military region!
They were also forced to this dangerous place.
Yang Chengwu's heart sank, he knew that the situation had become more complicated and dangerous.
He descended the mountain to greet him and join Political Commissar Yu and Captain Ding.
The two hurriedly reported to him that the nearby health school had been damaged by enemy forces, and they heroically rescued a group of students and brought them here for protection.
Yang Chengwu was in front of a group of twenty-year-old female students, and the fear and helplessness on their faces made him anxious.
He was well aware that if fighting broke out, the lives of these innocent young people would be in unimaginable danger.
He struggled with a dilemma in his mind, to protect these students, or to choose to fight a decisive battle with the enemy?
Time was urgent, Yang Chengwu pondered for a moment, and finally made up his mind.
He decided to safely move the students out of this dangerous place and find safe shelter for them.
In this brutal war, he did not want to let his young life be harmed again. Only published in the headline number, all other platforms are porters
But how can you highlight the encirclement?
Yang Chengwu fell into deep thought.
He looked around, his heart full of anxiety and helplessness.
No one knew where else to break out, and they seemed to be trapped in a desperate situation.
Suddenly, a citizen in the crowd raised his hand and pointed northwest.
Yang Chengwu's gaze was glued to him, hoping that this person would provide a glimmer of hope.
He quickly walked up to the common man and asked expectantly, "Do you know where to get out?" ”
The man nodded firmly, and he stretched out his finger to the northwest, "There is a ladder ditch, you can go out."
He explained to Yang Chengwu that although the ladder ditch was steep and difficult, it was the only opportunity to access the outside world.
Yang Chengwu felt a burst of joy in his heart, and at the same time he was grateful for the help of this common man.
He turned to face everyone and said confidently, "We're going to take the ladder ditch!" Despite the difficulties, it is only through hard work and unity that we can find a way out. ”
When the cadres heard the news, a wave of courage surged in their hearts, and they began to prepare for action. Everyone came together to encourage and support each other, and in order to break out, they decided to face the hardships of the ladder ditch.
Just after Yang Chengwu gave the order, he looked into the distance through the telescope.
But it was this look that made him instantly anxious.
Because Yang Chengwu found that the enemy army was rapidly approaching the direction of the hospital, he knew that the wounded there were powerless to resist and must protect them as soon as possible.
However, the number of combat forces he could mobilize was limited, while ensuring the safety of the thousands of civilians he had to take in on the retreat route.
This dilemma made him feel powerless.
At this urgent moment, Political Commissar Yu of Bethune School squeezed through the crowd and stood in front of Yang Chengwu.
With a firm gaze, he said, "Leave the task to us, this is our responsibility." ”
Subsequently, the students of the Wei School voluntarily stood up and expressed their willingness to protect the wounded.
Yang Chengwu looked at this group of young and determined faces, and a warm current surged in his heart.
They are future healthcare workers, and their willingness to risk to protect lives despite their lack of combat experience is touching.
Therefore, Yang Chengwu made up his mind and handed over this important task to Political Commissar Yu and the students of the Wei School. Only published in the headline number, all other platforms are porters
At this time, Shijiazhuangzi's hospital had long been shrouded in chaos.
People's eyes are full of anxiety and fear, because the news has spread and the devil is about to strike.
There was tension inside and outside the hospital, and everyone rushed to prepare for the transfer.
In the small ward, several doctors are busy transfusing blood for a wounded person, his face pale and the thread of life teetering in the slightest blur.
Doctors were desperate, desperately searching for blood to match, hoping to save his life.
In another room, however, a young wounded man lay on the bed, his eyes revealing a determined firmness.
He understood the seriousness of the matter and had no time to wait.
Suddenly, his hand gripped the pistol at the end of the bed and decided to end his life in the most direct way so as not to drag others down.
The sound of gunfire echoed in the ward, condensing everyone's hearts.
When the nurses of the guard school felt it, people were supporting each other, walking exhausted steps to evacuate the wounded.
Everyone was anxious, short of breath, sweat and tears intertwined.
On the trek, they continued to pass through barren fields and dilapidated huts, and although the wounded were tormented, they were also full of hope, because behind them were a group of people determined to protect their lives.
Eventually, they reached Ladder Ditch and fought Yang Chengwu.
After that, Yang Chengwu led the group of men and horses to move forward cautiously in the ladder ditch.
They were wary of every step because they knew the dangers of ladder ditches.
Ladder Ditch, a narrow and steep valley, is full of uncertainty in the dark.
Yang Chengwu felt the slippery stones under his feet, and they could only pull each other forward, deep into the waist-deep sewage.
The sound of rain echoing in the ditch, adding a chill.
Fortunately, they did not encounter enemies during the entire journey, which made Yang Chengwu slightly relieved.
But he clearly knew that this was only temporary, and the Japanese were searching for their traces not far away.
Over time, the Japanese army at the foot of the mountain gradually noticed the abnormality.
They began to outflank them in search of their targets.
Japanese soldiers walked through the mountains, searching for every possible hiding place.
Yang Chengwu clenched his teeth, he knew that he could not stop, otherwise once discovered by the Japanese army, he would be in trouble.
He led his troops to speed up, avoiding open areas as much as possible, choosing to hide in rocks and jungles.
However, fate seems to work against them.
The Japanese finally found the entrance to the ladder ditch and realized that their goal was at hand.
They jumped into the ditch and quickly caught up with Yang Chengwu's team.
The battle broke out, the sharp sound of bullets echoed through the valley, and the fierce gunfight plunged the entire ravine into chaos.
Chief of Staff Huang Shou stood on the position, his eyes firm, directing the team not to take a step back.
Despite the Japanese siege, Yang Chengwu and his comrades did not flinch, and they resisted and engaged in fierce firefights with the Japanese. Bullets fluttered in the air, and the valley was filled with gunsmoke and cries of battle.
With Huang Shou's stern command, they repelled the Japanese attack.
But at this time, Yang Chengwu was a little relieved, he stared in the direction of the ladder ditch, his brows locked. His heart was filled with confusion, mixed with questions about the retreat of the Japanese army.
The Japanese army clearly had the advantage, why did it suddenly change the situation and quickly retreat? Only published in the headline number, all other platforms are porters
Yang Chengwu keenly felt the unusual nature of this change.
He pondered for a moment, realizing that there might be some kind of danger here.
He then decided that he had to move his team to a safer place.
But at this time, Yang Chengwu encountered a very difficult problem.
During the stressful transfer, the female medical staff were already exhausted, and their faces were visibly tired.
"Captain Yang, we are really too tired, can we rest on the spot for a while?" A female nurse pleaded in a low voice.
They have been working intensely for long hours, both physically and mentally, and are now exhausted.
At this time, the dean of the Wei School also walked to Yang Chengwu's side and said to him: "Captain Yang, I and the students only need to take a short break, and we will meet you as soon as possible." ”
Yang Chengwu knew they had no extra time to waste.
Although he felt sorry for the exhaustion of the female medical staff, the current situation did not allow them to stay here for long.
Facing the crowd, he solemnly expressed his decision: "We led the team to leave first." As soon as you regain your strength, join us. ”
After that, Yang Chengwu led the exhausted team to successfully reach Wolf Tooth Mountain.
He breathed a sigh of relief and temporarily let go of his tense nerves.
The team arrived safely at Wolf Tooth Mountain, which was a huge victory for him.
He ordered a three-day rest to allow the soldiers to regain their strength and spirits.
The valley was filled with the snoring of tired warriors who fell into a deep sleep in haphazardly erected tents. Only published in the headline number, all other platforms are porters
Yang Chengwu looked at their relaxed faces, smiled, and felt relieved in his heart.
However, his concerns have not completely dissipated. He still has apprehensions about the children at the White School.
Yang Chengwu contacted the intelligence base.
But what was obtained was bad news.
It turned out that after Yang Chengwu left, the teachers and students of the Wei School continued to move forward after resting for a while, and their destination was Baiyintuo.
But at this moment, they encountered a surprise attack by the devil.
In an instant, the devil's machine gun fired, and the tongue of fire instantly engulfed the entire battlefield.
Bullets poured down like rain, mercilessly cutting the way forward for teachers and students.
The bayonets of the devils are sharp and cold, mercilessly provoking anyone who dares to resist.
Faced with this brutal situation, there were not enough guns available in the ranks.
They can only resist by relying on stones in their hands or with their feet.
The lesbians who could not run, in order not to delay the team, they took up guns and chose self-sacrifice.
The male cadets saw the sacrifices of the lesbians with grief and anger.
They fought fiercely against the enemy. Bayonets staggered, flesh and blood flying.
They held on until their chests were pierced by enemy bayonets and blood stained their chests.
The teachers and students threw stones and smashed them at the devil, but under the machine gun fire of the devil, these efforts seemed almost insignificant.
The wounded died tragically in the fierce battle, their blood stained the earth, and the battlefield was filled with a strong smell of blood.
The mournful cries and roars mixed together to make up this horrific scene of terror.
Red blood stained the land at the mouth of the ladder ditch like a tide, and the corpses of the martyrs were scattered all over it, like a bloody picture.
The bodies of the female students lay on the ground, their clothes shattered, their bodies covered with trauma, and their mutilated bodies showed their heroic sacrifice.
Around them, hairpins, combs, etc. are scattered, silently witnessing their past lives and hopes.
"Of the more than 150 young girls, less than 60 managed to escape, and the rest were brutally massacred by the Japanese army."
When Yang Chengwu listened to his superior's distressed reply, he was already in tears.
"They are all ladies and pillars of the country!"
Yang Chengwu's voice trembled slightly, and his eyes flashed with tears, and he continued: "This massacre, this tragedy, will forever be deeply imprinted in my memory. Whenever I close my eyes, those innocent lives echo in my mind. Their sacrifice, their blood, will forever be an indelible pain in my heart. ”
This is the tragedy of the ladder ditch full of blood and tears, which warns us with bloody lessons and makes us remember them.
It is not only the history of the past, but also a mirror that allows us to see the cruelty of war.
It reminds us that we must not forget the suffering and humiliation we have suffered and that we must defend the dignity of our country and nation with firm determination and the strength of solidarity.
