Someone once said that where there is war, let women go away. This sentence has never been realized since ancient times, and the rise of war is a disaster for the people, a disaster for all people, and there is no distinction between men, women and children.
In the wars of china's modern history, there are countless young people who have sacrificed their lives to their own countries, but there are also countless women who have also resisted foreign enemies with their lives.
Yang Li, who was pregnant with Liujia and was righteous in 108 shuttle darts, Zhang Li, whose youngest son was boiled alive in boiling water, Liang Huizhen, who was heroic and righteous in eight months of pregnancy, and Guo Junqing, who dressed as a man for a woman on the battlefield.
A weak woman, in the face of the great righteousness of her family and country, stood up her weak shoulders and fought for the country. Today we are talking about a heroine, her bravery made the enemy army awe, after the sacrifice of the Japanese army personally erected a monument for her.
In July 1944, at the end of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Japanese 15th Army planned to besiege Lishui, while the 21st Division of the 88th Army of the National Revolutionary Army was guarding Lishui City.
In the face of the well-armed Japanese army, the Nationalist army did not have the slightest certainty of victory, but they could not retreat, and behind them were innocent people, and once they retreated, the people would suffer.
Japanese army
After studying, the command decided to lure the enemy deeper with the strength of a regiment, and this task was entrusted to the 63rd Regiment of the 21st Division.
The defense of Yeosu City was the key to the entire battle, and once the enemy penetrated, the main force could either encircle it and annihilate it in the Songyang area.
The leader of the 63rd Regiment was Peng Xueru, who was also very clear after taking over the task, this battle was more fierce and less auspicious, but did not hesitate, and after signing the military order with the soldiers, he began to remove the pontoon bridges around the city and decided to fight a battle.
But Peng Xueru's heart could not let go of one thing, that is, his wife Jiang Mei, after he had made all the arrangements for the enemy, he was ready to send his wife away.
Who knew that before sending it out, the Japanese army surrounded Lishui City, Jiang Mei since marrying her husband, she followed Peng Xueru to the south to fight in the northern war, and also practiced a good marksmanship, even the bayonet also learned an eighty percent, seeing her husband in how to send himself away, she said: I don't leave, I can also go to battle to kill the enemy.
Peng Xueru still wanted to say something, but before he could receive a report, the Japanese army had already begun to attack the city, so he hurried to take his fighters to meet the enemy.
Although they repeatedly repelled enemy attacks with their fortifications and walls, they also suffered heavy losses.
Later, in order to take Yeosu City as soon as possible, the Japanese army also released poison gas bombs on the city, and the city was full of corpses of the people.
At seven o'clock that night, a traitor with the Japanese army climbed into the city from the west of Baiyun Mountain.
The commander of the second battalion defending the place fled directly with his troops, and the Japanese army opened the city gate effortlessly.
A large number of Japanese troops poured into Lishui City and killed the regimental headquarters, Peng Xueru hurriedly commanded the fighters to meet the enemy, but he was swept by the enemy's machine guns during the breakthrough and died heroically.
The Japanese then moved forward in an attempt to wipe out all the nationalist forces in the city, but at this moment they saw a woman, wearing a cheongsam carrying a machine gun, shooting at them.
The woman was followed by several wounded soldiers, who quickly snatched back Peng Xueru's body, this woman was Jiang Mei, and when the machine gun bullets in Jiang Mei's hands were finished, she took up the bayonet and fought fiercely with the Japanese army, and after killing four Japanese troops, she also died heroically.
Jiang Mei
In this battle, except for the second battalion that escaped, none of the 63rd Regiment survived, and when the Japanese army cleared the battlefield, they saw Jiang Mei's body and admired him very much.
So they buried Jiang Mei thickly, and erected a monument inscribed with the inscription: Chinese female god of war. Even the deeds of Jiang Mei were written into the history of the war.
This is our hero, our heroine, after the end of the War of Resistance Against Japan, according to written statistics, military and civilian casualties up to more than 35 million, not to mention property, just a Nanjing Massacre, there were 300,000 people killed, we simply can not count accurate numbers, so 35 million people, just a rough estimate.
Many people think that the war is a matter of the previous generation and has nothing to do with the present, but if you look at how many martyrs' cemeteries there are across the country, count how many Chinese women have been taken away as comfort women, go find surviving veterans from all over the country, listen to them talk about the tragic war of that year, look up, look at the heroes and martyrs in the sky, can you still say the word forgiveness?
